Rep. Brent Attends WNBA Announcement of NEW Cleveland Sirens

COLUMBUS — State Representative Juanita Brent (D-Cleveland) today attended the announcement of the NEW Cleveland Sirens, WNBA team, at Rocket Arena in Cleveland, Ohio.

“As someone who grew up with a basketball in my hands, I couldn’t be more thrilled to welcome the Cleveland Sirens to our city,” said Rep. Brent. “This team represents so much more than world-class basketball, it marks a monumental step forward for women’s sports, equal representation, and economic growth right here in Cleveland. Expanding athletic opportunities for women, gives the next generation of young athletes the chance to see their dreams reflected on a professional stage. The Sirens are bringing incredible momentum to our community, and I am proud to stand behind them as we write this exciting new chapter in Cleveland sports history.”

Rep. Brent remains committed to supporting initiatives that expand opportunity, strengthen Northeast Ohio’s economy, and ensure every young person can see a future for themselves both on and off the court. This announcement represents more than the arrival of a new professional sports franchise; it is an investment in the future of women’s athletics, economic development, and the next generation of Ohioans.
