The Victoria native, who was an honorable mention choice a year ago, tied Jordan with four top-10 showings on the year. She opened the spring with a 10th-place effort at the Koasati Pines Collegiate Classic on Feb. 8, followed by an eighth place performance at the Claud Jacobs Intercollegiate. Baker also placed ninth at the Lady Mocs Intercollegiate.
"I am very proud of the girls for the hard work and effort it took for them to be named All-SLC," first-year head coach Carrie Cole said. "Both of these two young ladies worked hard all year and that is one ofthe honors that comes with consistent effort day in and day out.
"I am very proud of Allie for making the first team, which was one of her individual goals for the year. She had the mental toughness and work ethic to make it happen. It also is quite an honor for Laura to be named to the team three of her four years at UTSA. "
