Head coach Ross Flemmer said, “This is a pretty impressive feat…Josh had a great year, he worked hard and did what was asked of him. What made him such a good runner, was that he ran hard, and always kept his legs moving. He had great body lean and was always falling forward after contact. He had a great season.”
