Who: Martha Jancewicz, 82, of Norwich.
Why you should know her: Jancewicz is the oldest member of the Connecticut Sun’s new Senior Dance Squad, a group of 50-and-older women who will perform during timeouts in five home games this season. The squad is sponsored by the Discover card.
Lucky 13: Thirteen women tried out a few weeks ago for a spot on the squad, and all were taken (one has since dropped out). Jancewicz says there was so much press coverage of the audition that she felt as if she were surrounded by the paparazzi.

I am tremendously proud of her… in addition to all this, she plays tennis, goes for daily walks and swims in her pool, and plays billiards like a pro.
I miss her, I wish we lived closer… 🙁
