Grace Kramer enters her second season on the St. John's Softball coaching staff after joining in September 2019 to focus primarily on pitching. Kramer came on board as a volunteer assistant coach before being elevated to the position of assistant in January 2020.
Kramer's first season with the Red Storm was cut short due to COVID-19. The Johnnies finished 8-15, winning their last matchup of the season 3-2 over Fairleigh Dickinson on March 11.
Kramer is an experienced BIG EAST pitcher who boasted 27 wins, four saves and 380 strikeouts during her four-year career with St. John's. After making 17 appearances during the team's BIG EAST Championship run in 2015, Kramer emerged as a leader in the circle over the next two seasons, appearing in 55 games and earning 24 wins during that span, which included a conference regular season title in 2017. She also captured a trio of BIG EAST Pitcher of the Week awards along with four Weekly Honor Roll selections.
After graduating from St. John's with a bachelor’s degree in marketing and with the BIG EAST Institutional Scholar-Athlete Award following the 2017 season, Kramer pursued an MBA in International Business while serving as a graduate assistant in the Student-Athlete Development office at St. John’s. In addition to mentoring fellow Johnnies, she also worked as a marketing intern for ProHEALTH Dental Management.
Following her master’s graduation in 2018, Kramer was promoted to Marketing Coordinator at ProHEALTH before taking assistant coaching duties at Monsignor McClancy Memorial High School this past season. As a member of the Crusaders coaching staff, Kramer assisted with day-to-day practice schedules and game plans while the program entered a new division with a higher level of play. In addition to her duties at McClancy, Kramer also worked with aspiring softball players as a private instructor for girls ages 6-17 over the last three years.
