      CONGRATULATING THE BAYLOR UNIVERSITY WOMEN'S BASKETBALL TEAM

  (Mr. FLORES asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. FLORES. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to commend the Baylor 
University women's basketball team on an outstanding 2011 season. I 
don't believe that there are many Members of this body who have the 
honor to represent two great schools that made it to the NCAA Elite 
Eight in this year's NCAA Women's Tournament. This trip to the Elite 
Eight is part of their winning tradition that includes a national 
championship in 2005.

  Coach Kim Mulkey and the Lady Bears deserve high praise on winning 
this year's Big 12 Championship and advancing to the Elite Eight for 
the second straight year. Sophomore post Brittany Griner was also named 
as a first-team All American.
  Congratulations to the Baylor Lady Bears on a great season, and 
Sic'em Bears.
