“Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. Madam Speaker, I rise today in support of House Resolution 1480, commending the University of Southern California Trojans men's tennis team for its victory in the 2010 National Collegiate Athletic Association Men's Tennis Championship. The USC men's tennis team captured the 2010 NCAA championship on May 25 of this year--its second championship in as many years--by defeating the Tennessee Volunteers 4-2. Despite losing their first two doubles matches, the fifth-seeded Trojans fought back hard in singles play and against the second-seeded Volunteers en route to the championship. USC's Robert Farah and Steve Johnson, who had their streak of 17 consecutive doubles match victories broken in the opening set, each recorded a victory in their respective singles matches. Two fellow Trojans also recorded singles victories to cement the win. I also want to congratulate Daniel Nguyen for his phenomenal efforts on the court in being named, as was mentioned, the NCAA Tournament's Most Outstanding Player. USC has won 113 national championships as a university, its 90th men's national championship, and in capturing this tennis title, their 18th men's tennis title championship overall. This feat makes the Trojans the all-time leader in such team victories. The University of Southern California is one of the world's leading private research institutions.…”
