.Thea LaFond, triple jumper and MCPS teacher, is back after representing Dominica in the Olympics.
LaFond almost won a 🥈 but was called for a foul. While she is still processing the disappointment, LaFond is already looking ahead to the 2024 Olympics.

My girl Thea LaFond has qualified for the finals on Sunday. Hopefully NBC Sports will stop playing hide and seek with the coverage and I'll be able watch it on Sunday morning. I smell a medal!!!
Thea Lafond 🇩🇲 with a HUGE personal best and national record 14.60m... in qualifying! She is into the final. She also improves on the 14.38 she did in 2019, and is just outside the world top 10 for 2021.

It has come to our attention that 10 athletes are not eligible to compete in Athletics for Nigeria, including myself. The athletes are not at fault for this. Please we need your help on how we can waive this so all 10 of us can compete. World Athletics Athletics Integrity Unit

Get to know Thea LaFond, a teacher at Kennedy HS and a UMd grad who’s headed to the Tokyo Olympics to represent her birth country, Dominica, as a triple-jumper. A story only at MCM.
