Why do you believe the star student athlete should be recognized?

Sofia is the best of both worlds, a team player and a leader. She cheers on and competes for the Trojans, is in the leadership program to become a counselor at Camp High Harbour, is a member of Sources of Strength, Super Trojans and Students against Trafficking and still makes time to excel in her artwork. She’s just getting started as a freshman.

What's one thing you want everyone to know about the star student athlete?

She’s always there.

Keep up the great work, Sofia!
