Sorry, but Ed's correct. In a two umpire system with multiple active runners, you can't "box" a rundown.
I do agree with your application of 10.3.C, and your placement of runners after the reversal of the call.
At the risk of stating the obvious, the PU has the lead runner on the base hit. When she rounded third, she is the PUs runner, the BU then has the trailing runner. The PU should have covered the rundown by himself, while the BU covered the trailing runners, while being available to offer another set of eyes if needed. If you are both on the rundown, you have no idea what happened while R2 and R3 were advancing to second and third base during the rundown.
