Coach Stephanie Magruder
Stephanie has been with All Star for over 18 years! “When I began coaching at 16, I had no idea the opportunity of the impact that I would have on these young athletes. 18 years later, I realize that coaching is more than just a job; it is a passion for me on so many levels. I have a love for the sport, and there is no denying that watching teams succeed and win is so rewarding. But the fundamentals these athletes are taking away with them is more valuable than I could have ever imagined, especially as I watch so many of these girls grow and mature to become great leaders in the gym. Coaching them as they gain confidence in themselves while mastering skills and seeing their dedication and work ethic evolve validates exactly why I do what I do. It’s more than a win to me – it’s the impact and the experience these athletes have and what they take with them that is so important to me. I am so thankful to be part of All Star where I have the opportunity of playing a role in these athletes’ lives, whether it’s real-world lessons and advice or just a safe, fun place to make memories. I am truly blessed to be part of the Patriots family!”
Stephanie currently coaches the Senior 2 and Senior 3 competitive cheerleading teams. Both of her teams have qualified for D2 Summit bids the last two years! Stephanie has been married to Richard for 14 years, and together they have two little boys, Ryker and Rhett.
Coach Harley Eitel
Harley has been a part of the All Star family since she was 6 years old when she started in our gymnastics program before transitioning over to cheerleading. Harley has lived in Nixa her whole life. She attended Nixa High School where she won the High School Cheerleading State Championship. She went on to graduate from Missouri State University where she had the opportunity to compete at College Nationals in Florida.
Harley was part of the very first competitive team at All Star and it didn’t stop there. She went on to do competitive cheerleading for 12 years including level 5 and level 6 teams. Harley now coaches our Junior 1, Junior 2 and Junior 3 competitive teams. In the last 2 years, 4 of her teams have qualified for the D2 Summit.

Harley absolutely loves the relationships she has with all of the amazing athletes in our program and the close sisterhood she has with the other coaches. “My life would not be complete without ASP”.
Harley lives in Nixa, with her husband Jordan and their son Hudson.
