South Carolina women's basketball visited the White House on Tuesday and President Biden honored the "legacy" of Dawn Staley and the Gamecocks

President Joe Biden cheered on the South Carolina women's basketball team for sparking a surge of interest in women’s sports during a White House celebration on Tuesday.

Coach Dawn Staley and the South Carolina women and coach Dan Hurley and the UConn men celebrated national basketball titles at the White House.

The chandeliers, golden wall-to-wall curtains and massive mirrors were grander than their home court. But they walked in exuding the same confidence as when they run out of the tunnel on gameday.

Staley, who has now masterminded three national championship victories as a coach, did not visit the White House after her first two titles in 2017 and 2022 due to difficulties with scheduling.
