MacDonald was closely followed in 16:53 by Julian Bautista, a 2022 alum of Gainesville's Saint Francis Catholic Academy and its cross-country team. Tyler Griffin, a rising junior at Keystone Heights High, took fourth in 17:49.
David Jones of Ocala, Florida was the fastest master runner in the race, placing eleventh overall in 21:21. Elkton, Florida's Carolyn Corgel was the first woman master and second female finisher, nineteenth overall in 22:55.
Nine-year-old Ryleigh Thomas of Keystone Heights was third in the women's standings and 23rd overall in 23:41. Olivia Griffin, a rising eight-grader on the Keystone Heights High cross-country team was fourth in the women's division and 30th overall in 25:26.
