One valley resident will soon be joining the NFL.
Farmersburg’s own, Leslie Ann Lindsey, will join the Indianapolis Colts cheerleading team.
Lindsey was one of 52 women who auditioned for the team and she was selected to join 27 others on the squad this year.
She’s had a busy few weeks, juggling classes and making daily trips to Indy during tryouts.
Leslie Ann will also graduate from ISU in 2 weeks, where she also was a cheerleader and a Sparkette on the dance team.
She says becoming a Colts cheerleader is a dream come true.
“I always love dance. It was just somewhere where I didn’t have to think or try too hard,” Leslie Ann said. “So being a cheerleader for the NFL is probably as big as it can get. They say that we’re professional athletes now so it’s pretty big, especially coming from such a small town.”
Leslie Ann will sign her contract this weekend, making her a part of the Colts organization until next year’s tryouts.
The small-town girl can’t wait to hit the sidelines.
