Lakeland Prep is proud to recognize Matthew Normand as this week’s Athlete of the Week. Matthew, a dedicated cross-country runner for the Lions, has consistently showcased his talent and hard work throughout the season. In each of the three races so far this year, he has steadily brought down his 5k race time, demonstrating significant improvement with every meet.
In his most recent race, Matthew came close to matching his performance from last year’s State Meet, finishing with an impressive time of 20:44. This achievement puts him within striking distance of surpassing his previous best, and his continued determination suggests that he’s just getting started.
More than just a talented runner, Matthew is an all-around team leader and a positive force for the Lakeland Prep Cross Country team. His dedication, sportsmanship, and support for his teammates make him an invaluable member of the Lions, both on and off the course.
