She owned an 81.9 stroke average as a senior, when she missed qualifying for the boys’ state tournament by one stroke. In cross country, she was always one of the top five runners on the team, and in tennis, she played No. 1 and No. 2 singles her freshman and sophomore years.

Other – An engineering student, Grooms has an Academic All-Big Eight selection after the 1994-95 season, and has set a goal to be named Academic All-American this year. She was a member of the Colorado team that won the 1993 Girls Junior America’s Cup championship. She has also competed in several amateur tournaments during the summer.

Personal – Born Dec. 28, 1975, in Wheat Ridge, Colo. She is majoring in architectural engineering at CU, and she is interested in becoming an architect after college.
