Stephanie Allan
- Title:
- Graduate Assistant
University of Memphis head rifle coach Morgan Wilson added Stephanie Allan to the team's coaching staff as a graduate assistant for the 2024-25 campaign.
"Having the opportunity to work alongside Morgan is such an honor as she was someone I looked up to when I was a junior myself," Allan said. "She's done an incredible job with the program during her time here and I look forward to being a part of the continued growth and success."
Allan comes to the Tigers after completing her collegiate career at TCU, where she competed for five seasons and helped lead the Horned Frogs to their fourth National Championship in program history in 2023-24. Her work in the final relay with a 595 air rifle score helped secure the title on the last day.
"We are thrilled to be welcoming Stephanie to the Memphis Rifle program," Phillips said. "She is bringing a wealth of knowledge to our program following a very decorated college career.
"Stephanie is coming off a national championship and that brings a lot of excitement to our team. We are happy to be adding someone with her level of experience."
Allan, a four-time Connecticut All-State Junior Rifle Club Team member, began her career with TCU in 2019-20 and participated in every home match with a then-career high mark of 582 in smallbore and 585 in air rifle.
In her sophomore season in 2020-21, she ranked top 100 in the nation with season averages of 573.4 in smallbore (79th) and 584.2 in air rifle (96th).
As a junior in 2021-22, she competed and served as a counter in all 14 matches and made her first appearance at the NCAA Championships. During the year, she topped her career-high in smallbore four times, finished the season ranked 10th nationally in individual air rifle average (594.7) and ranked 19th in the country in individual aggregate average (1,177.3).
At the end of the season, she was a First Team All-American selection in air rifle and an honorable mention All-American in aggregate.
Her senior campaign saw Allan compete in 12-of-14 matches and eclipsed the 580 plateau in smallbore eight times, while firing a 593 or better in air rifle nine times.
Allan wrapped up her collegiate career in 2023-24 after competing in and serving as a counter in air rifle in all 15 matches during the season. In smallbore, she was a counter in all but one match.
The Greenwich, Connecticut native was one of only two NCAA athletes to fire a 600 in air rifle during the season, with hers coming in the season opener against Navy. In that match she finished with a career-high aggregate mark of 1,189.
Allan ranked 10th in the nation in air rifle average (595.33), 35th in smallbore average (583.60) and finished 22nd in the country with a 1,178.93-season aggregate average.
Allan earned First Team Academic All-Big 12 in 2021 and 2022.
In high school, she was a 2019 NRA Junior Air Rifle Sectional Hi-Junior and captured a bronze medal at the 2018 Connecticut State Junior Olympics.
