Sophia Felini
Senior, Key West
Lacrosse
“Sophia is an all-around hustler. She never gives up and she goes exactly where she is told. She never complains; she even runs down the field with a giant grin on her face.” – Conchs coach Marissa Giacopuzzi
Conchs midfielder Sophia Felini has been making a name for herself, scoring 11 goals, causing seven turnovers, and amassing 20 ground balls and 12 draw controls so far this season. Described by head coach Marissa Giacopuzzi as aggressive with incredible speed, Felini “doesn’t shy away from the ball, from defenders or a challenge. She practices at 100%, 100% of the time.”
Recently, she stepped up for Key West in a five-game winning streak and helped keep her team in the game until the very end in the Conchs’ only loss since March 3. For her fiercely competitive play and willingness to leave it all on the field for her team, Sophia Felini is this week’s Keys Weekly Athlete of the Week.
