Tempo coach Brondello named to Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame’s class of 2027
KNOXVILLE — Toronto Tempo head coach Sandy Brondello was named Thursday as a member of the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame’s class of 2027.
Brondello is a two-time WNBA championship coach with Phoenix and New York who also led the Australian Opals to Olympic bronze at the 2024 Paris Games.
Brondello was officially named the first head coach of the Tempo on Nov. 4, 2025, after her contract was not renewed by the Liberty.
After a promising start, the Tempo finished their inaugural season 11-33, ending with eight straight losses and only one win in their final 21 games.
