   Congratulating the University of Washington men's soccer team on

                  Men's Soccer National Championship.

Whereas, on December 15, 2025, the University of Washington Huskies men's soccer 
        team (the ``Washington Huskies'') secured a 3-2 overtime win against No. 
        15 seed North Carolina State to win the national championship before an 
        estimated 10,000 fans;
Whereas this win marks the first national title in program history;
Whereas, during the 2025 playoffs, the Washington Huskies defeated the Oregon 
        State Beavers, the Southern Methodist University Mustangs, the Stanford 
        Cardinal, the Maryland Terrapins, and the Furman Paladins, before 
        defeating the North Carolina State Wolfpack in the championship game to 
        win the College Cup;
Whereas Zach Ramsey and Joe Dale scored the 2 goals during regulation time and 
        Harrison ``Harry'' Bertos scored the winning goal for the Washington 
        Huskies during overtime in the championship game;
Whereas every member of the Washington Huskies men's soccer team contributed to 
        the successful 2025 National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) 
        Division I National Championship season and the championship match;
Whereas the coaches and staff of the Washington Huskies men's soccer team played 
        a vital role in the success of the Washington Huskies during the 2025 
        season;
Whereas the Washington Huskies overcame a 3-game losing streak at the end of the 
        regular season to win all 6 of their NCAA tournament games away from 
        home, becoming the first team to win 6 road matches in the tournament; 
        and
Whereas the Washington Huskies showed immense strength, resilience, and teamwork 
        to win the national championship: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) congratulates the University of Washington men's soccer
