Stephanie Baker Honoured as Northern Mallee Sports Star of the Year

Talented young golfer Stephanie Baker has cemented her place among the region’s top

athletes, taking out the Peter Manolas Trophy at the Northern Mallee Sports Star of

the Year Awards on Friday night. At just 17, Baker’s victory marks a rare achievement—she is the second female winner in a row, something that hasn’t happened in over a decade. Golf has a

strong legacy in these awards, with two time recipient Greg Rhodes among past champions.
