Lindsay to Return to Poland

August 2, 2008        Lindsay has signed a contract with KSSSE AZS PWSZ Gorzów Wielkopolski in the Polish Womens Basketball League (PLKK).  AZS Gorzow finished third last year in the PLKK standings and is an automatic qualifier for the preliminary rounds of the Eurocup '08-09.  Lindsay was very happy with the signing of this contract with AZS Gorgow and maybe it represents the silver lining of not making the full season roster of the Washington Mystics of the WNBA.  Lindsay looks to be very basketball fit and ready to perform at a high level. She will leave for Poland in mid September.

          Lindsay was released yesterday from the Mystics. Bummer of course, especially considering that Lindsay reported that she really enjoyed her teammates and the whole situation in DC.

          There will be a silver lining somewhere, it will just take some time for it to become apparent.

May 20, 2008        Bummer    Skys cut Christensen     She looked so fit and ready to play. Kayte has a great aptitude for the game, it is hard to believe she won't find another gig.
May 19, 2008             It is going to be a long season, plenty of opportunity to see her play.

Season opener.

May 14, 2008      Four ex-Gauchos in WNBA... at the same time.      It is official, Lindsay has made the Washington Mystics roster and will spend the summer in DC. Phoenix or LA would have been the best of all worlds, but if you have to live in a city, DC works real nicely. It will certainly be light years ahead of Toruń, Poland, her home for the previous eight months. She already has an apartment in Arlington, just a short walk or drive to the White House. You never know who she might get to meet?
Congratulations Lindsay on a job well done as a invitee to the Mystic training camp and making the team.

May 1, 2008      Lindsay is hanging in there.       Lindsay is playing well and feeling very good physically.
April 22, 2008      Lindsay has signed a contract with the Washington Mystics of the WNBA. It is contingent on her making the team, but this is a team that needs post players, so that bodes well for Lindsay's chances.
