What was the name of the Cleveland WNBA team? (quiz)

But while summer speeds by, we’re still here to slow it down for a few minutes of fun — Cleveland-style.

Welcome to this week’s Signal Cleveland news quiz: your chance to flex those brain muscles on what’s been happening across the city, from downtown to your own backyard. And speaking of backyard history, we’re kicking off with a WNBA throwback. Do you remember the name of Cleveland’s team from 1997 to 2003? Regardless of what name our new WNBA team picks, we’ll be in the stands (or glued to the screen) ready to cheer.

The rest of this week’s quiz is a solid mix of “huh, I didn’t know that” and “yep, I saw that in the news.” We’ll test how closely you’ve been following the city’s plans to reimagine a major property, what late-night surprise popped up in Public Square, and just how much Cuyahoga County is getting from those opioid lawsuit settlements.

So grab your iced coffee, settle into a shady spot, and let’s see how well you’ve been keeping up with your city.

Congrats to quiz takers Erick G., Diane F., Kaushik S., Michael K., Ebony S. and Catherine M. for scoring 100% on last week’s quiz.

Let’s go.
