With the news of the death of Osama Bin Laden, much like the occasions when the events or 9/11 are at the forefront of American discussion, the thoughts of one person whom I am glad to call a friend always come to my mind. A longtime associate and friend in the game, Lyndelle Phillips narrowly escaped death that day.Here is the account of that day through her eyes, as we reported at United Soccer Leagues several days later...
NEW YORK – Lyndelle Phillips, the team president of the W-League’s New York Magic, knows she is lucky to be alive.
Phillips miraculously escaped injury in this week’s terrorist attack on New York City’s World Trade Center. Ironically, it was her prior experience in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing that saved her life and that of many of her co-workers.
