The resolution honors and commends the Miles College Lady Bears Basketball Team for their championship season, specifically for winning the 2024 Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC) Tournament. The Lady Bears had a remarkable run, defeating Clark Atlanta in the quarterfinals, Savannah State in the semifinals—where they did not allow any points in overtime—and finally Kentucky State in the championship game to secure their first SIAC Championship. The team's success also earned them an automatic bid to the NCAA Division II Women's Basketball Championships, marking the first time the Lady Bears have achieved this distinction, and they were given the No. 8 seed in the South Region Tournament.

The resolution is a formal expression of the Alabama Legislature's pride and offers the players and coaches the highest tribute along with best wishes for their continued success in all future endeavors. The resolution was passed by the House of Representatives on April 4, 2024, and adopted by the Senate on April 11, 2024.
