Two months ago Emily Austen left Boston to cover the Tampa Bay Rays. Today the Celtics officially hired her replacement:
According to her Twitter profile, Amanda Pflugrad is a former reporter for the SEC and Pac 12 Networks, as well as a one-time Oregon Ducks cheerleader. She also does some modeling for a jewelry company, and worked for the N.Y. Jets last season.
Pflugrad will have the Celtics team reporter torch passed down to her from Austen...
Who got it from Molly McGrath.
