                         Tuesday, June 8, 2010

  Mr. HOYER. Madam Speaker, I rise to congratulate the women's lacrosse 
team of my alma mater, the University of Maryland, on its record tenth 
national championship. In the March 31st championship game, Maryland 
defeated Northwestern University, a lacrosse dynasty in its own right, 
by a score of 13-11.
  Congratulations are especially due to Coach Cathy Reese, who was 
rewarded with success after returning to coach at her alma mater; to 
senior Caitlyn McFadden, who starred in her last collegiate game with 
two goals and an assist, and was named the tournament's Most 
Outstanding Player; and to the Maryland fans, who turned out to support 
their Terrapins in record numbers. This championship is the product of 
outstanding athletes and coaches, untold hours of hard work, and the 
passionate support of the University of Maryland community. The 
University of Maryland demonstrates excellence in both academics and 
athletics, and I'm proud of this team for contributing to that legacy.

                          ____________________
