Track-ish, presented by Brooks and hosted by Joshua Potts, is back on MileSplit to showcase the personalities of our best high school track and field athletes. In every show, Joshua Potts delves into what makes these athletes great, allowing them space to be themselves on the national stage.

His top achievement is running 8:52 for the 3200m last season, and he hopes to build on that momentum to win his first State title this spring.
