HOUSTON COMETS CHAMPIONSHIP HISTORY


On April 24, 1996, women's basketball announced "We Got Next" as the NBA Board of Governors approved the concept of a Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) to begin play in June 1997.

Since that day in 1996, there have been many firsts for the WNBA - Sheryl Swoopes - the first player signed to the WNBA, Cynthia Cooper - the league's first Most Valuable Player, and the Houston Comets - the first WNBA champions. The Comets, however, weren't satisfied with being just the first champions - they went on to take the first four WNBA titles. Please join us as we take a look back at a few of the more memorable moments in Comets history.
