CHARLOTTE, N.C.

After being held to just one field goal in the first half, Campbell shot 6-for-10 in the second half, including a 17-foot jumper with 17.4 seconds left to give the Storm (1-4) a 65-62 lead. Charlotte's Andrea Stinson then missed two 3-pointers before Seattle's Sonja Henning sealed the win with two free throws with seven seconds left. Seattle's game-winning rally capped a second half in which neither team led by more than five points. The game was tied at 58 with 2:52 remaining when Quacy Barnes converted a three-point play to give the Storm the lead for good. Seattle reserve Stacy Lovelace added 13 points and a game-high nine rebounds in 23 minutes of her first game after signing as a free agent on Thursday.
