South Carolina’s Final Four run wouldn’t be possible without LeLe Grissett’s veteran leadership
introduces its starting lineup Friday. But for a few moments, as those five players run out on the floor, she’ll be the star of the show.’ roster. Teammates say Grissett has embraced the leadership role that comes with that status. And while this manifests in all sorts of ways, on and off the floor, there’s one that’s particularly noticeable.
“She really gets us going,” says starting guard Brea Beal. “When it comes to handshakes, she is probably the only one that's going to remember them. … She is the one that really gets us going and motivated for the game.” That crack about no one else being able to keep all the different handshakes straight is one that comes up repeatedly:says she wouldn’t be able to remember them all, either. But that’s just Grissett, teammates say. She pays great attention to detail, with care given to each player on the roster, and the pre-game routines are a reflection of that. And, for the record, she swears she doesn’t have a favorite—she enjoys all of the handshakes equally.
“I take the leadership role pretty seriously, on the court and off it,” Grissett says. “I just feel like I can help the team move in the right direction.”
