Based on the given data, it appears that the times recorded by all the students are very close to each other, with only small variations. However, Owen's recorded time for Ball 2 (0.37 seconds) is significantly different from the times recorded by the other students for Ball 2 (0.51-0.52 seconds). This suggests that Owen most likely had an error in his results.
