Campus Champion

Student-athlete Sydney Smith began running as young girl and was an accomplished athlete throughout high school, so the opportunity to run for the Red Dragons and earn an exercise science degree made Cortland the right fit. Sydney was third team All-SUNYAC in cross country last fall but she’s also had her share of injuries. She aspires to help others return to physical wellness after a setback. To help pay for college and find a focus for her future, a year ago Sydney enlisted in the Army National Guard. She spent January through June in Missouri at basic training. Now, Private First Class Sydney Smith serves her country, her team and her university.
