Biography

Keeton's Commentary:"Laura got stronger during her first full season with the team and is improving each time she steps on the court. She fits into our family like a glove and if she continues to improve her strength and conditioning, the sky's the limit to what she can do. She has a height-advantage on most of our opponents and add the fact that she's left-handed and she has the potential to be great. She will have to work hard at earning a spot on the court for this upcoming season, due the depth in her position."
