On Thursday, January 16, 2025, Magellan Corporation had the distinct pleasure of hosting Tyler Marsh, the newly appointed head coach of the Chicago Sky. Accompanying him were our dear friends, the team CEO Adam Fox, General Manager Jeff Pagliocca, and VP of Sponsorships Alex Teodosi.

Coach Marsh engaged warmly with our staff, posing for photos and inquiring about Magellan's operations. The tour showcased our office's support for the Chicago Sky, with jerseys and memorabilia adorning the walls—a testament to our commitment to this decade-long partnership.

Coach Marsh brings a wealth of experience to the Sky. In the NBA, Marsh served as a player development coach for the Toronto Raptors, playing a part in their 2019 NBA Championship. He also held positions with the Indiana Pacers before joining the Las Vegas Aces as an assistant coach in 2022, where he contributed to two WNBA championships in 2022 and 2023. His extensive background positions him to make a significant impact on the Sky's performance in the upcoming season.

The WNBA experienced a historic surge in popularity last year, with record-breaking attendance and viewership. The league posted its highest attendance in 22 years, with a total of 2.3 million fans attending games in 2024, marking a 48% increase from the previous season. Magellan is proud to have been a sponsor for over a decade, supporting women's basketball long before its recent surge in mainstream recognition, a testament to supporting women-forward initiatives, including athletics.

Magellan looks forward to the 2025 season -- we'll be cheering loudest.
