If you ain't runnin' sub 23, sub 11.3, you ain't much of a sprinter anyway.
School size is important here, if he is at a smallish school that's a great move. Small schools only have a few true sprinters.
Yea, on this not I would say may 100-200m hs kids are not “sprinters” they are kids that are kids who are faster than slow kids... unless you are a pretty elite hs kid or your a high mileage XC program most kids will probably benefit from running and general fitness... of course legit sub 11 sec kids shouldn’t be running 40-50 miles but most “sprinters” will prob benefit from the general fitness of 20-30 miles of easy XC training and some strides and ploys and bw exercises
