the fearless, two-way spark who helped launch South Carolina’s rise
In the 2011-12 season, La'Keisha Sutton was a tone-setting senior for South Carolina, earning All-SEC Second Team and All-Defensive Team honors while averaging 10.6 points per game; across her USC career, she finished with 1,299 points and 357 assists, showing rare combo-guard value. She stands out less as a volume scorer and more as a gritty, high-IQ competitor who defended the opponent’s best player, attacked hard off the dribble, and gave Dawn Staley a trusted on-court leader. If your team wants toughness, playmaking, and edge, Sutton is a very easy yes.
