Tulsa WNBA team moves to West
December 17, 2009
TULSA, Okla. (AP) -The WNBA team formerly known as the Detroit Shock is changing conferences as part of its offseason move to Tulsa.
The WNBA released its schedule for the 2010 season on Thursday, and the Tulsa franchise announced that it would be moving to the Western Conference. There were only five teams left in the West - and seven in the East - after the Sacramento Monarchs ceased operations.
Tulsa's team, which will either retain the Shock name or change it to Fire or Tempo, will open the regular season May 15 at home against the Minnesota Lynx. Tulsa will face the Lynx in two of its first three games and five of its first 11 games.
The finale to the 34-game regular season will be Aug. 21, when Tulsa hosts the Chicago Sky and former Oklahoma All-America center Courtney Paris.
