MEMPHIS — The Memphis women's golf program has officially added Katie Stinchcomb to its 2021 signing class.
A native of Cave Creek, Ariz., Stinchcomb led Pinnacle High School (Phoenix, Ariz.) to a first-place finish at the 2020 High School Golf National Invitational in Pinehurst, N.C. in August. She shot a 2-over-par 218 (74-72-72) over the three-round event to lead her team with a second-place finish individually.
She also helped lead Pinnacle to its first state championship in 2019, beating Arizona powerhouse and perennial favorites Xavier Prep by 16 strokes.
Stinchcomb is a three-time All-State selection and was named first-team All-State as a junior and senior. She has qualified for and participated in several national tournaments, including the Girls PGA Championship and the IMG Junior World Championships.
"We are very excited to welcome Katie as a Lady Tiger golfer," said head coach Beth Harrelson. "She is very experienced and has a great track record of success. She is a tenacious golfer while being both smart and aggressive. I believe that Katie will be an impact player immediately and look forward to her four years on the Memphis women's golf team."
