Glenn’s score is 4th-highest in South Jersey history behind Millville’s Raffael Craig [3,814 in 1999], Bridgeton’s Jamil Sanders [3,632 in 1994] and Feigenbutz. Craig and Feigenbutz both recorded their highest score at 1999 Roxbury Nationals at the Reggie Lewis Center outside Boston. They placed 1st and 6th.
