The opportunity to represent your country is one of the highest honors in sports, and it speaks volumes about Josh and the teammate and competitor he has become.”Fellow local four-star talent Kam Mercer is surely in his ear all summer, trying to get Tyson to join him in the class.Check out some of Tyson's top highlights below:Phenom United 2027 Josh Tyson scores 21pts as Lakota West beats Middletown, he continues to prove that’s he’s a top 5 Player in the State.
