Senior captain Sofia Purvis is in her third year playing varsity midfielder for the Lady Blue Devils.  The position demands quick thinking on field as she shifts from offense to defense as needed. As of 2020, she has three goals on record and is known on her team for her enthusiasm, encouragement, and spunk on the field (and some occasional clumsiness).

In addition to playing for the Blue Devils, she is an active member of Winslow Bandits, an EDP travel league.
