After each race Josh said, “I would always look at my mom and have thanks… always filming and always supportive, always yelling and screaming telling me, ‘good job’. It is just that love between every time I finish. I…look to my mom. This one’s for my mom.”

If you see him in the halls today, make sure to wish him luck at Districts . Track and Field leave right after school to compete in Districts at Falls Church High School.
