Mia Fisher and Lindsay at Shoreline near UCSB campus.

 This Lindsay Taylor tribute found on YouTube was put together by a fan from pictures from this website. Very cool.

Lindsay is Back on Stride      December 21, 2007      As is befitting the birthplace of Nicolaus Copernicus, the Father of Modern Astronomy, the universe is once again in perfect alignment.  Lindsay scored a huge 29 points in her teams loss to MUKS Puznan.  This came after an abysmal two points in her previous game against KK AZS Jelenia Gora.  The two points just didn't seem to be quite right for Lindsay at this stage of the season .... perhaps better described as an "anomaly" of astronomical proportions.  But the universe has righted itself and Lindsay had a huge game once again, blocking four shots and hitting two for two from the three point arc, getting ten rebounds and capping it all with a 33 point performance evaluation rating.  That evaluation rating soared her back in the top 3 women in evaluation points in the League.  All is in order for the Holiday Season.  Lindsay will come home to Arizona to celebrate the Holiday Season and then go back to Poland to have a strong finish in the Polish Women's Basketball League.

Five unwarranted fouls on Lindsay Taylor who hasn't been in foul trouble all year.

Lindsay Taylor on radio talks about refereeing at KK AZS game.

Referee probably called a foul on Lindsay.   Black Cat telling Lindsay this is a political game with a last place team and the Referees are calling the game against us.   Lindsay laughing about the fouls not called against her.
 

Lindsay Plays Big Again      December 8, 2007      Oh my, Lindsay had 33 points in 23 minutes in yet another win for Toruń Energa, 80 to 45. Toruń Energa has won four straight and stands at four wins and seven losses in league play.  She is absolutely starting to exert herself and play a dominant game.  Now if she can stay focused and finish out the season in good physical shape the WNBA will definitely be in her future again.  Lindsay scored a season high 33 points. Obviously it gained some attention in the League.

Lindsay is Polish Women's League Player of the Week 11.

Finally Some Good Results      December 2, 2007      Lindsay Taylor has finally started to score and rebound and her Polish team Toruń Energia is also starting to win. They started the league season by losing their first seven games. In those first seven games Lindsay only averaged 8 points . The last three games Lindsay has scored 16, 23 and 28 points. In all three games, her team won. I really don't know how many Polish coaches it takes to figure out how to win? I'm just glad for them and Lindsay they did.

Just Call Me Lindska      September 7, 2007        Lindsay has signed a contract to play with a team in Torun, Poland. Yes, the birthplace of Nicolaus Copernicus, the Father of Modern Astronomy, the person that put the sun in the center of the Solar System. The name of the team is "Nova Trading"......? The Polish Womens League is very competitive and has had some very notable women players; Anna DeForge, Tamika Catchings, Nakisha Sales, Ruth Riley, Chamique Holdsclaw with a whole lot of Eastern European and Russian women thrown in. It is hoped that this opportunity will lead itself into another tryout with a WNBA team.
