Sixth in the Spanish River Race of Champions in 15:55.7, a second behind Iziliaev, after 16:10.5 for 14th at the Horse Park, where he beat Rigdon by two places and Chandler by six. Two races, both inside the top fifteen of a big field, and a season figure that is fourth in the class. Fourth for a second week: above Rigdon and Chandler on the Horse Park, below his teammate on Friday. The Gulliver pair go head to head again soon enough.

Did not race the varsity five; Gulliver sent a second group to King of the Hill. His 16:10.5 for 14th at the Horse Park is one race, and it is worth about 16:16. He ran 18:52.5 at state last fall, so that Horse Park run was a two-and-a-half-minute improvement.

Opened at the Horse Park and ran 16:10.5 for 14th out of 549, the fastest raw time by a 2A boy this season after Rigdon's Cecil Field opener. He was 166th in 2A at state in 18:52.5. That is a two-and-a-half minute jump in ten months, one race, and he is sixth on it.
