Sofia Smith

Smith played for the Cornell Big Red women's soccer team as a striker noted for her speed. During her junior year in 1999, she was the leading scorer on the team, with seven goals and four assists. She lettered for three years, for a college career total of nine goals and seven assists, including two game-winning goals for Cornell. She was unable to return to competition for her senior year due to an invasive knee surgery for a torn ACL, sustained during the previous year's season finale against Yale.

Smith played for the Houston Stars in the Women's Professional Soccer League and the Houston Women's Soccer Association in the United States.

Smith played for Greece in the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens as a midfielder, taking a leave of absence from her final semester of law school to train with the national women's team, which automatically qualified for the competition as the Olympic hosts. She was one of eight American players of Greek ancestry on the team who had college soccer experience. Due to the Greek Soccer Federation's sensitivity about players on the team with American-sounding surnames, her jersey simply read "Sophia". On August 11, 2004, she started in Greece's opening match against the United States, which was won 3–0 by Team USA.
