TOPEKA, Kan. (June 23, 2017) Topping a field of 22 in the series debut at the three-eighths mile Heartland Park Topeka clay oval, Oklahoma’s Alex Sewell was the top-dog with the Speedway Motors ASCS Warrior Region presented by Impact Signs, Awnings, and Wraps and the American Bank of Oklahoma ASCS Red River Region presented by Smiley’s Racing Products.
Taking the green from third, the eventual winner gave chase to the No. 82 of Jordan Boston. Slipping high on the sixth rotation, Boston left the door wide open for Sewell to advance to the point.
Charging from sixth, Missouri’s Jonathan Cornell crossed runner-up with Miles Paulus third. NCRA regular Jeremy Campbell took in the show with a fourth place finish. Traveling from Tennessee, Terry Gray completed the top-five.
Jordan Boston ended up slipping back to finish sixth with Morgan Turpen seventh from 11th. Kade Morton, Chris Morgan, and Don Droud, Jr. rounded out the night’s top-ten.
