SEATTLE (AP) — Seattle Storm chief financial officer Tricia McLean has died following a medical emergency. She was 61.
The team says McLean died Monday. She had been with the Storm for the past 16 years, serving as the team's CFO since 2014.
McLean was there for the three of the team's four titles (2010, 2018, 2022). She guided the Storm through their most successful financial years in franchise history, while overseeing the team's temporary relocation due to arena renovations, the 2020 season that was played in a bubble and the move back to Climate Pledge Arena in 2022.
“We are shocked by her unexpected passing, and profoundly aware of how important Tricia was to our Storm organization and the city's sports community,” said Ginny Gilder, co-owner of the Storm. “She served as a member of our leadership team, but additionally Tricia was a dear partner and friend.”
McLean is survived by her husband Chuck and three children, Chelsea, Charlie and Julianne.
