Sophie Ferenczi

Sophie is an extremely gifted runner who has enjoyed great success in Cross Country in 2022.

She placed 1st in the 18 Girls 6km race at the NSWCCC Championships, before finishing 2nd in the 18’s race at the NSW All Schools Championships. At the School Sport Australia Championships in Adelaide, Sophie ran extremely well, finishing 12th across the line in the U/20 race, being the 3rd school student to cross the line. Sophie assisted the NSW team to win a Gold medal in both the team event and the relay event.

Sophie is an active participant in giving back to her College community through her appointment as College House Captain. This elected position requires countless hours of selfless effort working with the student body to develop awareness of, and raising funds for, charitable organisations as well as build the community spirit within the College setting through Swimming and Athletics Carnivals. Sophie is a highly respected member of her College community and is a fine role model for younger students on how to balance elite level sport with a sound education.

Sophie is a most worthy recipient of this 2022 NSWCCC Blue Award for Cross Country.
