A resolution commending the University of South Carolina Gamecocks women's basketball team for winning the 2024 National Collegiate Athletics Association Women's Basketball National Championship.
SRES 659 is a ceremonial Senate resolution commending the University of South Carolina women's basketball team for winning the 2024 NCAA Women's Basketball National Championship. The resolution highlights their undefeated 38-0 season, second championship in three years, and record-breaking TV ratings for the championship game. It formally recognizes the team's achievements, including their 87-75 victory over Iowa, and requests that a copy be sent to the university president, head coach Dawn Staley, and athletics director. As a symbolic gesture with no legal effect, it directly honors the team and university leadership.
