50th Anniversary of the Texas Western College Men's Basketball Championship Commemorative Coin Act

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``50th Anniversary of the Texas 
Western College Men's Basketball Championship Commemorative Coin Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds the following:
            (1) On March 19, 1966, Texas Western College (the 
        ``Miners'') defeated the University of Kentucky in the National 
        Collegiate Athletic Association (``NCAA'') men's college 
        basketball final at Cole Field House in College Park, Maryland, 
        by a score of 72-65.
            (2) The 1966 Miners are still the only team from the State 
        of Texas to win a NCAA basketball championship.
            (3) This marked the first time an all-Black starting lineup 
        had won the NCAA championship;
            (4) After the 1966 championship, many college teams 
        throughout the South following the Miners' example began 
        recruiting Black athletes, ending years of segregation.
            (5) Immediately after the championship, between the years 
        of 1966 and 1985, the average number of Black players on 
        college teams nearly doubled.
            (6) Every southern conference team (including the 
        Southeastern Conference) followed the Miners' example, and all 
        basketball teams were integrated the following season.
            (7) The top-ranked University of Kentucky men's basketball 
        team was favored in the final over the third-ranked Texas 
        Western College squad.
            (8) Texas Western College was led by coach Don Haskins and 
        the University of Kentucky by coach Adolph Rupp.
            (9) Coach Haskins taught his team the ``swinging gate'' 
        defensive style he had learned as a player at Oklahoma 
        Agricultural and Mechanical College (now Oklahoma State 
        University) under legendary coach Henry Iba.
            (10) Texas Western College's journey to the 1966 NCAA 
        championship was depicted in the 2006 film titled ``Glory 
        Road''.
