Comparative

Could you check whether both of (A) and (B) are right in the following sentence?
Thank you.

No one [ (A) can run / (B) runs ] faster than he at his high school.

They are both OK. However, "than him" is more natural than "than he". I would also be inclined to move "at his high school": No one at his high school [ (A) can run / (B) runs ] faster than him.

  • They are both OK.
