The 5-foot-9 senior forward led the Warriors to a 22-1 record and their fourth straight Division I state championship this past season. Rossi scored 29 goals and passed for 14 assists, including a goal in Walsh Jesuit's 2-0 win over Springboro High in the title game. She scored the game-winning goal in the state final each of her first three championship runs with the Warriors. The two-time Ohio Scholastic Soccer Coaches Association Division I Player of the Year, Rossi was also the 2016 winner of the Ms. Soccer award. She concluded her prep soccer career with 81 goals and 51 assists.
Rossi has maintained a 3.82 GPA in the classroom. She has signed a national letter of intent to play soccer on scholarship at Wake Forest University beginning this fall.
Rossi has volunteered locally in hospital emergency rooms and at an elder-care facility. She has also donated her time at a homeless shelter and has completed a service-mission trip to Costa Rica. "I have been coaching for 17 years and I do not remember a player that had as much impact on a game for a team than Sofia," said Pete Ragone, head coach of North Royalton High. "She is deadly because she has tremendous knowledge of the game. She is a team player with great vision and can score virtually from any opportunity."
