JV Coach/Varsity Assistant
LaKeith Grant is in his first season as a Plano East assistant coach after developing a reputation as a strong defensive coordinator and coach throughout his career. He joined the PESH program in
June 2019 and is responsible for defense, on-court coaching and building up the program which is coming off advancing to the first round of the playoffs.
 
A Greenville, Texas native and Midwestern State University graduate, Grant arrives in Plano after five seasons in Arlington where he was an assistant coach at Seguin. Grant and the Cougars advanced to the playoffs on several occasions. Along with his experience at Seguin, he has coached at North Mesquite, Wichita Falls Rider, and Midwestern State University. He joins the Panthers having 14 years of coaching experience and numerous players who he’s coached and/or recruited have reached the next level.
 
“I feel extremely humbled and blessed to work with and learn the Plano ISD way,”Grant said. “My family and I could not be coming to Plano East at a more exciting time. I’m eager to work with all of our players, students, and join the efforts of our entire staff to be fully committed to their development as student-athletes and as young ladies. I cannot wait to win games, district championships and ultimately win a state title at Plano East. Coach Linson has created an expectation to win big and a championship culture that I’m ecstatic to be a part of.”
 
Grant earned his Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology with a minor in history and a Masters degree in Sports Administration from Midwestern State University.
