Cunningham wasn’t just a scorer; she was a leader, a game-changer, and an inspiration to everyone in the arena. Her incredible career earned her a spot in the University of Missouri Hall of Fame, and now her number will hang as a permanent reminder of her impact on Missouri women’s basketball.
This isn’t just about stats or records—it’s about legacy. Every time fans see her jersey, they’ll remember the heart, grit, and talent that Sophie brought to the court every single game.
For young athletes dreaming big, Sophie’s journey proves it: dedication + passion = a legacy that lasts forever. The Tigers have honored a true legend, and her story will inspire for generations to come.
