Two female referees will make NBA history when they both officiate Hornets-Magic game

The NBA has had female referees since 1997, but in the 24 years since then, none of them have ever worked together on the same crew. That will change on Monday night.

For the first time in NBA history, two women will work on the same officiating crew. Natalie Sago and Jenna Schroder will be working the game between the Charlotte Hornets and the Orlando Magic on Monday.

NBA history in the Charlotte-Orlando game tonight: First time two female referees -- Natalie Sago and Jenna Schroeder -- will officiate the same NBA game.
