Nobody does it better than Dawn. 🙌⁣ •⁣ On Wednesday, April 30, the City of Columbia unveiled a statue honoring Dawn Staley — a coach, a leader, a trailblazer whose impact stretches far beyond basketball. 👏⁣⁣ •⁣ Commissioned in 2023 and unveiled with the support of Statues for Equality and generous community partners, the statue will stand at the corner of Senate and Lincoln Streets outside the university's Pastides Alumni Center — a location chosen by Staley herself to leave the space outside Colonial Life Arena reserved for her players. 🥹⁣ #thegist ⁣ •⁣ #womenssports #basketball #collegesports #southcarolinagamecocks #dawnstaley
