Cleveland's WNBA team has its first official hire. The team announced Tuesday it hired Allison Howard as its new president, per a press release.
Howard joins the team — which does not have a name yet — with plenty of experience. She currently serves as the executive vice president and chief commercial officer with the Cleveland Cavaliers. Prior to that, she served as the president of the Kansas City Current, an NWSL team. Howard joined the Current as the team's first president as the expansion franchise prepped for its first season, so she's been in this exact position before.
Howard expressed excitement over her new role, saying she's hoping to make the team "a source of pride for our city," per the team's statement.
