Training With Laura

Grace has been making a lot of progress working on her game with St John's Graduate Assistant Laura Barry. It's been great to get her out to St John's every once in a while and Laura is a very good trainer and a super-nice person. Wish we could do it more often, now that the JV season is over maybe we can! GraceAnne seems to have a lot of fun working with her and I can tell she respects and listens to everything she has to say.
