WNBA tabs CEO Engelbert as 1st commissioner
"Cathy Engelbert, who became the first woman to serve as CEO of Deloitte, has been named the new commissioner of the WNBA, it was announced Wednesday."

"She was chair and CEO of Deloitte's audit subsidiary before beginning a four-year term as CEO of the U.S.-based branch of the company in 2015. Her term with the company doesn't officially end until June, and she will begin her job with the WNBA on July 17."

"NBA commissioner Adam Silver said in a statement. "The WNBA will benefit significantly from her more than 30 years of business and operational experience, including revenue generation, sharp entrepreneurial instincts and proven management abilities."

"Engelbert played basketball and lacrosse at Lehigh, graduating in 1986. Her basketball coach was Muffet McGraw, who moved on to Notre Dame in 1987."
