  IN RECOGNITION OF NORTH CAROLINA STATE MEN'S AND WOMEN'S BASKETBALL 
                                 TEAMS

  (Ms. ROSS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. ROSS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to highlight the extraordinary 
achievements of the NC State men's and women's basketball teams, which 
had amazing runs through this year's NCAA championships.
  For the first time in NC State's history, both teams made it to the 
Final Four in the same year. The underdogs of the season, the men's 
team shocked the Nation when they beat top-seeded UNC to win the ACC 
Tournament, claiming the title for the first time since Jimmy V was the 
coach in 1987.
  They continued to defy the odds by beating Duke and making it to the 
Final Four.
  The three-peat ACC champions, the women's team, also made the 
Wolfpack community exceptionally proud, starting the season unranked 
and making it to the Final Four with an incredible final game against 
South Carolina.
  I congratulate both teams on their fantastic season.
  Go, Pack.
