Leslie Grayson is widely regarded as one of the best ultimate players to never be inducted into the Hall of Fame. A standout player for the Washington, D.C. team Satori, Leslie’s combination of skill, athleticism, and leadership made her a dominant force on the field throughout the late ’80s and early ’90s. As a co-captain, she helped lead Satori to four Regional championships, four Nationals semi-finals, and two Worlds semi-finals. Leslie’s consistency was unparalleled; whether it was shutting down opponents with sick layout blocks, slicing through zones, or delivering calm, composed scoring throws, Leslie was the player who kept Satori in the game. Off the field, she was the epitome of spirit, always cool-headed and a voice of reason for her teammates. A brilliant strategist and fierce competitor, Leslie embodied ultimate at its highest level—passionate, composed, and truly inspiring.
