My Sister's Middle School Teammate Is MVP of WNBA All-Star Game

The Connecticut Sun's Katie Douglas last night was named MVP of the WNBA All-Star Game. I went to high school with Katie at Perry Meridian High School in Indianapolis; she was in my sister Whitney's class. She and Whitney even played together on the middle school team in seventh and eighth grade. (Prior to that, they were teammates on a traveling softball team.) When I was 8, I actually played baseball with Katie's older brother. And, while I didn't really know Katie, she did attend my sister's twelfth birthday party. All this is to say that I am not far removed from basketball superstardom.
