BASKING RIDGE: Gavin Richards was more than content with simply staying alive when his heat in the North Jersey, Section 2, Group 4 boys 1600m run began. The North Hunterdon freshman, seeded fifth, was in line for the top-six finish that would guarantee him a spot in the Group 4 championship next weekend.
It wasn’t until the final stretch that Richards truly thought he had an opportunity to walk away from Ridge High School with a gold medal.
