Several of those runners aren't actually part of the class of 2010. If we're trying to rank a class and not a year, they shouldn't be counted.

Conversion from 3200m to 2M is around +3.2 secs, so at least these 10 from 2010 were sub-9.
1.Jeremy Elkaim 8:46.08a
NJ Livingston
2. Joe Rosa 8:48.55a
NJ West Windsor-Plainsboro North
3. Jake Hurysz 8:49.76a
NC Eastern Alamance
4. Tyler Anyan 8:52.835a
GA Brookwood
5. Brian Shrader 8:53.09a
AZ Sinagua
6. Sam Pons 8:55.40a
CA South Pasadena
7. Brandon Lord 8:55.42a
TN Baylor
8. Matt Mizereck 8:55.75a
FL Leon
9. Elias Gedyon 8:56.37a
CA Loyola
10. Weston Strum
8:56.42a
And 3k that would be sub 9 converted in:
Jim Rosa 8:12.00a
Justin Vilhauer 8:17.37a
Wade Meddles 8:18.25a
And Lukas V. with 8:29 2M
So 14 at least, maybe a few more who only broke sub 9 in actual 2M race somewhere.
