My favorite sister-of-a-Bobcat-basketballer, Crystal Langhorne, had a profile in the Washington Times today and she got some instant karma, scoring eight points on 4-of-4 shooting in the Washington Mystics 69-66 victory over the Houston Comets to get their first win of the season.
Coach Tree Rollins said the choice was between Langhorne and a few other […]
