Harry recorded 4 pb's including going 2nd on the clubs all time 110mh lists with a time of 15.62 secs and finished with 6476 points for 3rd place overall and the 2nd highest decathlon score in the clubs history. For this Harry received his all-american medal and the honour of being the leading freshman in the competition.
