“Sophia’s dedication to improvement, to consistency in training, and to challenging herself in workouts and competition has allowed her to climb the rungs of distance-running success with remarkable alacrity. She never allowed weather – hot or cold, wet or dry – or unforeseen circumstance to shake her resolve to tackle big goals and big events. Probably the best female distance runner ever to compete in Western Massachusetts, she refused to rest on her laurels.” — Amherst coach Chris Gould.
