Ashleigh Stoehr

Memorial Middle School rising eighth grader Ashleigh Stoehr (pictured) plays golf about six days each week at Lakeside Country Club. She plays 18-hole tournaments in the Southern Texas PGA, and placed second in her most recent competition. During the summer, she attended golf camp at The University of Texas. Ashleigh first hit the golf course at age 3 with her dad, Blake Stoehr. This father-daughter time was fun for both of them, and Ashleigh has since become passionate about the sport. Ashleigh’s main goal is just to have fun, although she does aspire to play in both high school and college. She is well on her way with a personal-best score of 81.
