COLUMBUS  – Columbus State University cheerleader Brooklyn Sumbry has been named the Columbus State Athletics Student-Athlete of the Week, presented by Chick-fil-A on Macon Road and Chick-fil-A on Manchester Expressway.

A sophomore from Phenix City, Ala.,  Sumbry is a member of the Columbus State Athletics Cheerleading team and continues to make a positive impact through her energy, commitment, and school spirit while supporting Cougar Athletics across campus.

Sumbry is majoring in Communications at Columbus State and is a graduate of Central High School in Phenix City, Ala. Following graduation, she plans to pursue a career working in sports, combining her passion for athletics with her communications background.

If given the chance to compete in another sport,  Sumbry says she would choose football — "so I can do a touchdown celebration."
