Crystal Kelly!

We really enjoy watching Crystal Kelly play ball, but Megan happens to be her biggest fan. She has her #42 jersey autographed by Crystal.
After the last regular season home game, all the players signed autographs, but Crystal's line was so long, fans wrapped all the way around the auxiallary gym to get a little souvenir of the historical night. Crystal's jersey was retired.
She's always so gracious to her fans and so patient.
Group hug........Crystal's teammates congratulate her on the retirement of her jersey!
Crystal broke the school's all-time leading single game scoring record at the last regular season home game. On the night her $42 was retired, she scored a record 42 points.
Crystal is the first WKU athlete to ever have her jersey number retired while she is still in play. We're proud of her and are anxious to see how she and the Lady Toppers do in the NCAA tournament.
I had to throw this picture in becuase they're actually being nice to each other in it. I was on duty the night of this game and the kids came down to sit by me and had these front row seats when Crystal made history.
