Hi, I'm Sophie and I am a junior! This is my first year on Drops of Ink, and I really enjoy sports writing. At LHS, I am in cross country and I am also on the varsity lacrosse team. This year I also decided to be a link crew leader! I enjoy reading, spending time with friends, and listening to music.
