Houston’s Chancellor resigns

Chancellor, the only head coach in the teams 10-year history, finished his career as the WNBA’s most successful coach with a 211-111 record.

"First and foremost, I want to thank Leslie Alexander and Carroll Dawson for the wonderful opportunity to be a part of a terrific organization," said Chancellor. "I won four championships with this organization and I walk away with memories that will last me a lifetime. I made this decision because I felt that this was the right time to take a step back and spend some time with those that matter most to me."

In his 10 seasons, Chancellor posted more wins than any coach in WNBA history and the Comets won the first four WNBA Championships.

"I want to thank Van for all hes done for the Comets organization during his 10 seasons in Houston," said Houston Rockets and Comets Owner Leslie Alexander.
