On the recordMarch 9, 2021
March is Women's History Month, and I am grateful to recognize inspirational women who have achieved success. Inspirational women are the University of South Carolina's basketball team, who won a sixth SEC title in 7 years, the first time that has been done in SEC history. Congratulations to these talented women for remaining number one. This game was also historic because it was the first time two Black head coaches met in a conference championship game with Coach Dawn Staley leading the Gamecocks and Coach Joni Taylor leading Georgia, an important milestone in American sports history. Best wishes to the Gamecock women in the NCAA tournament. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. Our sympathy to the family of Hatsy Young, widow of former Congressman Ed Young from Florence. ____________________
