CONGRATULATING THE UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA-LINCOLN WOMEN'S BOWLING TEAM 
 FOR WINNING THE 2015 NATIONAL COLLEGIATE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION BOWLING 
                              CHAMPIONSHIP

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate 
proceed to the consideration of S. Res. 439, submitted earlier today.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the resolution by title.
  The senior assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A resolution (S. Res. 439) congratulating the University of 
     Nebraska-Lincoln women's bowling team for winning the 2015 
     National Collegiate Athletic Association Bowling 
     Championship.

  There being no objection, the Senate proceeded to consider the 
resolution.
  Mrs. FISCHER. Mr. President as a proud alumnae of the University of 
Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL), I congratulate the UNL women's bowling team on 
an outstanding season.
  The UNL bowling program has a long history of excellence and success. 
During the program's history, the team has won 10 national 
championships. This year, the team had an incredibly strong season and, 
once again, advanced to the NCAA championship match. Although the team 
fell short of winning the national championship this year, I know I 
join all Nebraskans when I say how proud we are of this team's 
accomplishments. The Huskers finished the season with a match record of 
100 to 34.
  Each of the young women on this team played an important role in the 
many victories the team enjoyed throughout the season. In addition to 
their group success, several players received individual honors. Julia 
Bond was named first team All-American by the National Tenpin Coaches 
Association. Gazmine Mason earned third team and Briana Zabierek earned 
honorable mention All-America honors.
  The members of this team and their coaches are a testament to hard 
work. They are part of a proud, time-honored tradition of UNL 
athletics. I thank them for representing the university so well, and I 
wish them good luck next season. Go Big Red.
  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the 
resolution be agreed to, the preamble be agreed to, and the motions to 
reconsider be considered made and laid upon the table with no 
intervening action or debate.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The resolution (S. Res. 439) was agreed to.
  The preamble was agreed to.
  (The resolution, with its preamble, is printed in today's Record 
under ``Submitted Resolutions.'')
