Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor my alma mater, the great University of Florida, and our incredible women's gymnastic team, who earned their first NCAA Super Six National Championship. I'm very proud of our Lady Gators, as they proved that hard work, tireless dedication and passion lead to great things. I know that, under the direction of Coach Faehn, many of these young ladies will represent not just the Gator Nation, but our Nation, the United States of America, in the next Olympics. Ladies, I commend you for your exceptional work ethic, your talent and drive in achieving this title. Congratulations, ladies. And as we like to say back home in Gainesville, it's great to be a Florida Gator and part of the Gator Nation. ____________________
