MEMPHIS, Tennessee – Memphis men's soccer's senior forward Sam Ashton was named to the United Soccer Coaches All-East Region Second Team, the organization announced Monday morning.

"We are really proud of what Sam was able to accomplish individually and collectively this fall," Head coach Richard Mulrooney said. "He really stepped up and made the most of his senior year. We couldn't be prouder and we know he has a bright future ahead of him."

Ashton received the honor after leading the Tigers in scoring with 11 goals in 2019, marking the first time a Memphis player has scored double-figure goals in a single season since 2012.
