WASHINGTON (AP) -- Trudi Lacey is finished as the general manager and coach of the Washington Mystics after a 5-29 season.

The Mystics announced Monday they will not renew Lacey's contract - or her assistants' deals - after finishing this season with the WNBA's worst record.

Washington went 6-26 in 2011.

Owner Sheila Johnson says the team is "looking forward to a fresh start."
