Is Dawn Staley married? Inside her relationship with South Carolina’s Lisa Boyer

Dawn Staley hardly needs an introduction: she’s the former WNBA super-star, the Olympian hero, and the coach who has led South Carolina’s women’s basketball team to three NCAA championships (two back-to-back) since she joined the program in May 2008.
To say Staley has fans is an understatement. So naturally, those fans are curious about her professional and her personal life, and the question comes up: is Dawn Staley married or in a relationship with anyone?
Unsurprisingly, Staley is very protective of her personal life and has not given any interviews that indicate she’s in a serious relationship at all — but over the years, she has occasionally indicated that there might be someone very special in her life.
As reported by Daily Express US and reshared by MSN, back in 2018 Staley sent a very sincere and sweet message to none other than Lisa Boyer, South Carolina’s associate head coach. Coaches having their partners on their team is nothing new (Vanderbilt’s head coach Shea Ralph’s husband Tom Garrick is one of her assistant coaches, too).
Both Staley and Boyer arrived at South Carolina in 2008. Apparently while marking the 10-year anniversary of the move, Boyer wrote on X (then known as Twitter) in 2018, “What Dawnnie?!?! 10 years!!! Went by in a blink. Laughs, tears, joys, disappointments, heartaches, and victories, BUT always shoulder to shoulder. Been a ton of fun so let’s get this next 10 started!!!#ualreadyknow #loyalisnameofgame.”
“Boyer!! We are that old married couple who started young and will grow old together,” Staley replied. “You put the ride and die in the RIDE and DIE! Proud of you Boyer. Thanks for sacrificing your career to help to me serve our teams, program, university and state. What a ride?!”
And in true Dawn Staley fashion, those two tweets are practically the only evidence of a potential relationship between herself and Boyer — and that’s probably exactly how she’d like to keep it.
