Staley is known for showing off her personality on social media, and the comical Instagram video is just another example of that.

Sunday's win allowed South Carolina to secure a share of the SEC regular-season title. Maybe more significantly, the Gamecocks will be the No. 1 seed for the SEC tournament. A coin flip between South Carolina and Texas, who both finished 15-1 in conference play, determined the seeding for the tournament.

The Gamecocks hosted ranked SEC foe Kentucky for the final game of the regular season. Despite being ranked No. 15 in the AP Poll, the Wildcats have struggled in their competitive conference. After the loss, they are 11-5 in conference, fifth in the SEC.
