Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the extraordinary achievements of the NC State women's basketball team, who won their third straight ACC championship this year. On Monday night, the entire Wolfpack community watched an incredible game as the women played their hearts out against UConn. Our players fought until the very end, coming back in the second half after trailing by double digits, scoring a 3 pointer that sent them into double overtime. It was no easy feat, playing UConn in their own territory, and NC State never gave up. Too often, women athletes don't get the attention they deserve. The team was an example to all female athletes and all boys and girls seeking to play at the collegiate level. Congratulations to the Wolfpack on a fantastic season. ____________________
