I coached her in club, 3 years of High School at Rancho Mirage, and 2 years at College of the Desert. On to the 4-year level she goes, very happy and excited for her as she takes this next step in her life. Study and work hard. Make sure you take warm jacket and warm clothes for those central Kansas Winter Snowman Days LOL."
