Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the remarkable women's basketball team from the University of Montana Western in Dillon. The Bulldogs recently captured the NAIA Division I national title to close out a stellar season. The team's convincing 75-59 victory over the nine-time national champion, Oklahoma City Stars, brought the national title to Dillon, Montana. The school's first national title in women's basketball brought well- deserved recognition to senior Brianna King, a two-time All-American and NAIA National Player of the Year. Ms. King, however, was not alone on the court. Fellow All-American Britt Cooper won the tournament's Hustle Award and Tori Anderson made All-Tournament First Team. The Bulldogs' head coach, Lindsay Woolley, led the team to the national title and was named the 2019 NAIA Coach of the Year. Congratulations to all the players and coaches. Your school and State are proud of you. All Montana is Bulldog Nation. ____________________
