Whereas, this talented group of women were ranked as high as number seven in the country in the USA Today/ESPN Top 25 Poll, and placed three players on the all conference team; and

Whereas, under the able leadership of Coach Kevin Pederson, who was the Peach Belt Conference Coach of the Year and Southeast Region Coach of the Year, the Lady Bearcats have become a dominant force in women's basketball not only in the Peach Belt Conference but throughout the Southeast; and

Whereas, the Lady Bearcats have made three consecutive trips to the NCAA Tournament and have won two conference tournament championships and two regular season titles in the last three years; and

Whereas, the members of the Senate, by this resolution, would like to extend their heartiest congratulations to Coach Pederson and his staff and to each member of the Lady Bearcat team for completing the best season in Lander's school history which has brought so much credit not only to them but to the State of South Carolina as well.
