December 14, 2015
On Wednesday, December 9, the boys varsity basketball team traveled to Middletown High School to take on the Knights. The night ended with a victory for the Lancers, who won the game 82-57, but the night marked an even bigger accomplishment for one of Linganore’s players.
After four years playing on Linganore’s varsity basketball team, senior starter Thomas Lang scored his 1,000th point in his high school career.
#00 Lang has been a prominent player on his team for many years, but he has now guaranteed himself a legacy in Linganore’s basketball program, being one of only two players to ever reach the 1,000 point milestone.

A short ceremony took place to recognize Lang in the center of the gymnasium in front of cheering fans, parents, and teammates.
