His junior and freshman seasons (XC was cancelled due to the pandemic his sophomore year), he was named All-Scholastic by the Boston Globe and Herald, made the All-New England (NEPSTA) Team, claimed MBIL Individual Championships, League MVR, breaking the championship course record each year and leading Brimmer to consecutive MBIL team titles.
