Steve McCannon has a special moment at Sophie McCannon's signing with Abilene Christian University.
Faith Academy senior Sophie McCannon, an eight-time state champion runner, has signed with Abilene Christian University.
“I am extremely proud of Sophie,’’ said Faith Academy athletic director Randy Denton. “For a bar that was already set high when she arrived, Sophie has raised it even higher for future athletes at Faith Academy. She is a true reflection of our motto for Faith Academy Cross Country and Track – ‘Work hard and compete.’’’
