Mary Anne Choi died in Oklahoma City, Owner of Wichita Falls Warriors NAHL

The North American Hockey League (NAHL) announces the death of Oklahoma Warriors Owner and Governor Mary Anne Choi, who passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, November 19th in Oklahoma City.

“This is devastating and heartbreaking news for the Oklahoma Warriors and the NAHL family.” Mary Anne’s death has startled and saddened us. She approached her hockey team with the same passion and purpose she lived her life with.

Her top priority was to give back to the players and the community. “What she accomplished on and off the ice in such a short period of time was nothing short of incredible,” NAHL Commissioner and President Mark Frankenfeld remarked.

The North American Hockey League extends our heartfelt condolences to her husband Michael, daughter Chelsea, and son Eric.” Mary Anne’s family, friends, and the entire hockey community will miss her much.”

Choi was announced as the new owner of the Wichita Falls Warriors by the NAHL on October 15, 2019.

She formed the team with one objective in mind: to do things correctly and to be the greatest team in the league. The team relocated to Oklahoma City in April 2022 and became the Oklahoma Warriors.

That desire came true last season when the Warriors not only won the NAHL regular season championship, but also their first Robertson Cup National Championship on May 23, 2023.

The Warriors became the first club to go unbeaten in the Robertson Cup Playoffs since the 2003-04 season, and they were also voted the NAHL’s Organization of the Year for the 2022-23 season.
