After suffering a stress fracture in his right leg before the cross country season began last September, Dothan High’s Ethan Johnston feared gaining a college scholarship in the sport may
But on Tuesday in front of family and friends in the Dothan High gymnasium, Johnston signed on the dotted line to join the Enterprise State Community College cross country team.“I’ve had the privilege of coaching Ethan for the last three years,” Fore said. “He’s a really great kid. He works really hard and he doesn’t let obstacles like breaking his leg interfere with his goals.
“It was a stress fracture in my shin that happened a few days before our first meet,” Johnston said. “I was putting in a lot of miles and it was probably from over-working it. It was on Aug. 16 and I was out three months, which is the whole season. It’s so much better. I’m doing everything full force now.”
“I want to thank my family for really supporting me all the way to when I first started until now, especially my dad. He paid for literally everything … a lot of money, a lot of time.
