Ranking writeups
#1 — 1A Boys Week 1
Runner-up in 1A at state in 15:47.8 — the fastest returning mark in the class by more than nineteen seconds, and the only sub-16:00 any returning 1A boy owns. He opened at Cecil Field in 16:23 for 34th in the Boys Elite race, which is eight seconds behind David Barton and 35 seconds off his own November time.
He is ranked first anyway, and the reason is what the race looked like: Cunningham went out with Armando Cruz, the fastest boy in Florida, and paid for it over the last mile. That is a choice, not a decline, and the boys' zero-second August conversion means his 15:47.8 needs no discounting to still be the best number in this class. He gets one race of benefit of the doubt. He does not get two.
