Josh enters the Copper League quite unimpressively, but his team is hoping that his pre-league 5k time trial is more of a “Moravian 1500” than an “entire freshman year of cross country”. There’s no doubt the guy is a good racer with a great reputation, but the Copper League is built around a principle of solo-time trialing so that may give the casual fan pause. Personally, I think the Kid is going to be the most improved runner over the course of the Copper League season and may end up the metaphorical swing vote in the Red Team’s bid for history. If I’m wrong, you can expect that his teammates will be calling for his girlfriend to take his place. #sub8.
