Brandon broke his own record at the BCSL Divisional Championships at Northern Burlington High School. At Haddonfield Memorial High School Distance Night, Kevin bested a mark set in 1963 by Barry Middleton of 1:55.4.

Kevin and Brandon joined sprinters Zion Howard and Skyler Clark for a new Moorestown High School 4×400 relay record of 3:23.9 at a dual meet at Willingboro. Earlier in the season, they teamed up with Clark and Melvin Sheppard to establish a new Sprint Medley mark of 3:31.66. The previous 4×400 mark of 3:24.0 was set in 1975 by K. MacDougal, D. King, J. Little and C. Maloney. The old Sprint Medley record, also set in 1975, was 3:34.5 by T. Swain, J. Little, K. MacDougal and L. Friedman. At the South Jersey Relays, the quartet of Outlaw, Howard, Clark and Greg Gamble set a new standard in the 4×200 meter relay with a 1:31.12, beating the time set in 1972 of 1:31.5 by F. Hall, B.
