Hey all;
It was a good news, bad news scenario last Saturday at the Lake Highlands Invitational held at Norbuck Park in Dallas. The good news, Josh took fifth place with a time of 17:13 on the 5k course. The bad news, Josh “rolled” his right ankle about ½ mile into the race. How he finished I will never know because by the time he crossed the finish line, his ankle was the size of a baseball.
As a result, Josh, his coach and athletic trainer are all in agreement that it would be best for Josh to not run this coming Saturday in Wylie and concentrate on rehabbing his ankle. It is still too early in the season for him to take a chance on making a bad situation a season ending situation.
As a team, Forney took third place. The Jackrabbits were ranked 8th in the state in class 4A in the Texas Cross Country Association poll last week.
The colleges keep calling as Josh has gotten calls from coaches at Abilene Christian and Stephen F Austin. The ACU coach told Josh he has been watching him since he was a sophomore.
If things change between now and Saturday and Josh does decide to run, then we will let you know, but I really don’t think he will.
Until next time….
