Another passion of mine is women’s basketball.  I spent my time in front of the tv watching the NCAA Women’s playoffs, taping those games that I was not able to watch, loving every minute of it.  That then is followed by my time spent watching WNBA games. both on tv and going to Madison Square Gardens to see the New York Liberty.  Now, I will be going to Washington, D.C. (about 2 1/2 hours south) when my schedule allows to see Crystal Langhorne (who is a hometown girl!!) and the Washington Mystics.  I knew Crystal’s brother who played basketball with my youngest son.  Her brother was good but had an injury in his senior (I think) year.  I knew of his younger sister who was even more talented than her brother.  I have followed Crystal’s career with the University of Maryland (another connection — alma mater of one of my sisters and a cousin) and was almost in tears when I saw that she had been picked #6 in the first round of the draft!!!   It is inspirational to the students at Willingboro High School to see one of their own do so well. Congratulations to the Langhornes!
