Tamika Catchings, the 2012 Finals MVP who won her first championship as a pro, was the only WNBA player to start every regular-season and playoff game and every game in the Olympics last year.
As you can imagine, life in Oklahoma has been flipped upside down this week. The afternoon after my last blog was posted, possibly the biggest and most destructive tornado to hit our state came through Moore, Okla., just 10 miles up the road from us.
Texas A&M Athletics Before heading off to super regionals, the Texas A&M softball team organized a relief effort for the disasters in West, Texas, and Moore, Okla.
With the activities of WNBA Cares week in full force, I've begun to think about heroes in my life and why I love giving back to the community.

The Serbian tennis star, who made his pro debut 10 years ago when he was 16, has held the No. 1 ranking on the ATP Tour for just over a year. Djokovic, who has won six major titles, will be trying to win a career Grand Slam when the French Open begins next week in Paris.

I have some really wonderful memories when I look back on my career, but overall, playing at the Colonial as the only woman in a PGA Tour event stands out for a lot of reasons. A major one is simply the journey that led up to it.

Stanford has claimed 16 NCAA titles and has six runner-up finishes since 1982, while the Aggies will be making their first appearance in the finals.
