FAIRFIELD, Conn. Fairfield Prep sophomore James Mulliken won the junior varsity race Saturday at the Wilton Invitational, one of many outstanding runs on the day for the Jesuit runners.
Mulliken covered the 3.15-mile course in 18:56, an average of 6:01 per mile. His victory matched that of teammate Connor Rog, who won the varsity race. Prep won the team title among the large schools and also took the junior varsity team crown, outdistancing runner-up Guilford by 21 points.

Raphael Kinney finished third for Prep in 19:08, and Prep had five runs in the top 15. Mulliken's time would have been good enough for 43rd in the varsity race. Complete results are available on the clubct.org website.
