  Lisa Holton- Asst. Women's Golf Head Coach  
     
 

Lisa Holton wil be returning for her second season this year.  She grew up in Rockford Illinois, the daughter of a golf pro. She started playing at the age of five. Her father was an accomplished tournament player in the midwest as well as a popular teacher, so she was schooled early on in the fundamentals of golf. Lisa played on the boys' team in high school because there was no girls' team at her small boarding school in St. Louis. She met her husband working in the pro shop for her father and has been married to Jim, an avid golfer, for the past 29 years.


After raising three sons, Lisa got hooked on golf again seven years ago when they joined a country club in the KC area. She has served as President and most all positions for the Ladies Golf association of her club. She won the club championship in 2004 and the 'most improved golfer' award for the Women's Golf Assoc. of KC. Lisa is a trained volunteer for the First Tee program of KC and volunteers her time to help organize the Women's Future Tour event, held at her club for the past two years. Giving back to the game of golf is important to Lisa. Golf gave her many great experiences growing up and she wants to see golf help strengthen and build character for today's young women.
