This is the seventh in a series introducing you to members of the Falcons' cheerleaders squad.

Name: Sydney

Occupation: Research chemist for the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention.

Education: I was a biomedical science major at Auburn University.

Favorite Falcons moment: I couldn't say that I have one particular one because there have been so many. But one of my favorite, I guess, would have to be when we won our playoff game four years ago.

How long have you been a Falcons cheerleader: I've been a cheerleader for four years.

Coolest part of being a cheerleader: Just getting to know all of the girls from all around the country and all around the world. Also, doing a lot of community service, getting involved with the community.

Come back each week of the season to meet another member of the Falcons' cheer squad.

The cheer squad: Megan | Macy | Amy | Dana | Kristen | Cecilia | Sydney
