It’s Win or Go Home Time

The Washington Mystics have two games remaining to play this season, tonight at home and tomorrow afternoon in NY. If we win both games we are guaranteed a playoff spot which would be considered a terrific turnaround from last year’s disappointing season.

The team can control its destiny now. We will be at the game tonight. Alex Ovechkin will be at the game tonight too. Come on out and enjoy some great family entertainment and see some exciting basketball.
