Who the fuck is Josh Elliott?

TW: mention of alcoholism (kind of), mental illness
Joshua Elliott stepped onto the court in 2022 with only a season and a half under his belt and the new assignment of the captain of the Emerson College men’s volleyball team. Coming into the season, he was the only one to play a match for the Lions and one of two to ever play a collegiate match.
Sometimes too smart for his own good, Elliott relies on volleyball as a mental stabilizer because of the community and (sometimes overwhelming) schedule implemented into his everyday routine. Additionally, he has taken on the role of captain with ease and the utmost patience. Best friend and former teammate, Sam Willinger has been a driving force in helping Elliott navigate the unusual circumstances placed upon this season.
