Stage 1

Ben Rhodes controlled the opening stage, leading every lap despite late pressure from Hocevar.

Two drivers suffered tire issues, Busch and LaJoie, but avoided major damage. The only caution came when Cory Roper (#62) spun.

Stage 2

Hocevar claimed the stage win amid mixed strategies across the field.

Early in the stage, Cole Butcher (#13) spun after contact with a teammate, backing into the wall and ending his race. During that caution, Christian Eckes began dealing with an alternator issue.

Later, Kris Wright added another caution with a solo spin, setting up a two-lap shootout to end the stage.

Stage 3

The final stage stayed green until about 30 laps to go, when Rhodes spun Ankrum while battling for eighth.

Chaos erupted soon after. Stewart Friesen (#52) spun off Turn 4, and Grant Enfinger drove through the grass trying to avoid him, destroying the front of his #9 truck and bringing out a red flag.

After the restart, more trouble followed. Garcia hit the wall and cut across the track, attempting to pit. Jones made contact, while Haley’s truck slid through the grass and slammed into the outside wall, triggering another red flag and sending the race into

NASCAR overtime.

Ruggiero led the field to the restart, but Hocevar surged ahead as the pack went three-wide behind him. That gave the #77 the gap he needed to pull away and secure the win.
