Houston Angels T-Shirt (Premium Lightweight)
Houston Angels T-Shirt (Premium Lightweight)
The Houston Angels, based in Houston, Texas, were a charter team of the Women's Professional Basketball League, the first women's pro league in the US. They played two seasons, 1978-79 and 1979-80.
Houston went 26-8 in the first year, the league's best record, and beat the Iowa Cornets three games to two in the final. That made the Angels the first champions of a women's pro league. They finished 19-14 the next year, lost in the first round of the playoffs and disbanded. Don Knodel coached the team and was named coach of the year. Paula Mayo scored 36 points in the deciding 111-104 win on May 2, 1979. The Angels drafted Ann Meyers and Lusia Harris.
