“I was pretty ecstatic when I found out. It’s nice to get recognized, and it’s nice to get recognized at a national scale,” said Johnson, who’s entering his senior year at the University of Massachusetts.
“I think it’s a great honor. It reflects nicely on the program and the coaches and the type of athletes we have for both cross country and track. The sport doesn’t get too much recognition, so it’s good to get good press.”
The 2007 Ludlow High School valedictorian carries a 4.0 grade point average at UMass. He’s majoring in Food Science and Technology, and also has a minor in biology. |
