Sens. Scott, Graham introduce resolution celebrating USC Aiken women’s polo team’s historic season

WASHINGTON — U.S. Senators Tim Scott (R-SC) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) yesterday introduced a resolution congratulating the University of South Carolina Aiken women’s polo team on winning the 2026 United States Polo Association Division I Women’s National Intercollegiate Championship. 

On March 22, 2026, the USC Aiken Pacers secured a 15–6 victory over Texas A&M University to claim the national title—marking the first national championship and first undefeated season in program history. The team also delivered an impressive 26–5 win over Cornell University during tournament play. 

“Congratulations to the USC Aiken women’s polo team on an extraordinary and historic season,” said Sen. Scott. “Their undefeated record, relentless work ethic, and commitment to excellence embody the best of South Carolina!”

“Congratulations to the USC Aiken women’s polo team on such a historic season and thrilling win over Texas A&M, bringing home a national championship trophy to South Carolina. Their hard work and dedication has truly made our state proud,” said Sen. Graham. “With such a rich polo tradition in Aiken County, it’s amazing — but not surprising — to see so many of the best and brightest athletes in the sport compete and succeed at USC Aiken.”

The resolution recognizes the contributions of team members Brianna Jane Jordan, Madison Ann Jordan, and Winifred Anne Branscum.

Sen. Scott’s resolution celebrates the team’s strength, resilience, and teamwork throughout their season and honors their place in South Carolina sports history.
