Saturday marked the conclusion of an exceptional season for reigning IronWoman champion Lana Rogers, who was named Surf Sports Athlete of the Year at the annual Surf Life Saving Australia (SLSA) Awards of Excellence.
This recognition comes following a breakout season for Rogers in 2019-20, where she won her maiden Coolangatta Gold title and was crowned IronWoman champion after winning four of the five series rounds.
