          RECOGNIZING BAYLOR UNIVERSITY MEN'S BASKETBALL TEAM

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. PETE SESSIONS

                                of texas

                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, April 16, 2021

  Mr. SESSIONS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Baylor 
University's men's basketball team as the 2021 NCAA National Champions. 
Eighteen years ago, Coach Scott Drew talked about coming to Baylor 
``for a chance to win a national championship,'' A dream vocalized by 
one man turned reality by a team of men with great faith. A team that 
played as one. Oh yes, they had individuals and they were outstanding. 
But it was their teamwork mindset that achieved this victory.
  This season, Baylor defeated more top-25 teams than the three other 
Final Four teams combined. These results prove that hard work, a 
determined mind, and a willing spirit can conquer any challenge. To say 
I am proud is an understatement. My hometown Baylor Bears have proved 
their abilities and I believe this is just the beginning of much more 
greatness to come. I wish these men as much success in future endeavors 
as they earned this season.
  Congratulations men.
  Sic `em.
