Guthrie Edson knows the world like the back of his hand it would seem.

The Mary Ellen Henderson Middle School seventh grader has won his third school-level National Geographic Bee in four years.

Guthrie won his first medal as a Thomas Jefferson Tiger in the fourth grade and became the MEH winner in the fifth grade two years ago.

Now that he's back on top in his final year as a Husky, Edson will take a written test to try and qualify to represent Falls Church City Public Schools at the state level in the spring.
