TORONTO — Toronto Tempo head coach Sandy Brondello will be inducted into the Sport Australia Hall of Fame.
The WNBA team that just completed its first season in the league announced Tuesday that Brondello is one of seven members of a class that will be inducted in November in Melbourne.
She will enter as an athlete. Brondello, a four-time Olympian, played 302 games for Australia and helped the country earn its first Olympic medal in women’s basketball in 1996 with bronze.
Brondello and her Australian teammates went on to take silver in Sydney, Australia, in 2000, and silver again four years later in Athens, Greece.
