The Dayton Rockettes was a women's professional basketball team located in Dayton, Ohio, United States. The team competed in the Women's Professional Basketball League, the first women's pro league in the United States, during the 1978-79 WBL season.
The Rockettes made their debut on 15 December 1978, losing to the Houston Angels 90âÂÂ82, with Vivian Greene scoring their first points. The team was originally owned by Louis Deitelbaum but was re-possessed by the league in February after he stopped paying the bills. DaytonâÂÂs final "home" game was moved to Market Square Arena in Indianapolis, on April 8, 1979, as a showcase for potential buyers. After no buyers materialised, the Rockettes folded after the season.
