“today I would like to offer my congratulations to the Kennesaw State University Men's Basketball team on winning the 2004 NCAA Division II National Championship. This is a tremendous accomplishment and the players and coaching staff of the Kennesaw State University Men's Basketball team are to be commended. I would like to congratulate Head Coach Tony Ingle. Under his leadership, the Owls of Kennesaw State have achieved new levels of success. Coach Ingle has been named the Division II Bulletin/Moulten Coach of the Year, the National Association of Basketball Coaches Coach of the Year, and the Naismith Awards Georgia Co-Coach of the Year. These accolades are a testament to his knowledge and experience in the sport of basketball as well as his strength as a leader. Coach Ingle has been able to take a promising young program under his wing and guide it to new heights. I would also like to recognize the individual Owl players for their hard work and tremendous dedication. It takes incredible endurance and grueling physical and mental trials to attain a national championship. The players of Kennesaw State have not only endured, but excelled and thereby achieved one of the highest honors in college athletics. Their dedication serves as an example of devotion, and their commitment and perseverance is to be commended here today.”
