lenged for the win but cramped up at the end could not make a final charge. After four hour and seven minutes, Hart completed a total of five laps to take the win. Webb ended up finishing 13 minutes and 26 seconds behind in sec- ond place. LeBlond came out on top of his battle with Ashburn to take the final podium spot, 22 minutes and 50 seconds behind Hart. Ashburn was 10 minutes behind LeBlond at the finish and was the last rider to complete five laps. Rockstar Husqvarna's Colton Haaker had a pretty quiet day, slowly working his way up to fifth place at the finish. Quinn Wentzel put in his best re- sult of the season with a sixth-place finish on his Rieju. He battled with Haaker and Robert and ultimately finished between them. Robert took seventh on his KTM. Snowmobile Champion and part-time Extreme Enduro racer Keith Curtis finished eighth on his Sherco. Daniel Lewis finished ninth on a Husqvarna and fellow teenager Will Riordan rounded out the top 10 on his RPM KTM. "It was a fun weekend at Ohio," Hart said. "We had lots of rain leading up to the race and with the clay dirt, we knew it was go- ing to be an extremely difficult race. I had a very good start in the main event, which proved to be very important. I played it safe for a little bit, before getting into a groove and trying my best to keep it on two wheels for the remain- der of the race. I'm extremely pumped to get my sixth win of the season at possibly one of the hardest tracks of the year!" Cody Webb said, "I had a terri- ble first lap. Went down in the first corner, jarred my back 10 minutes in, got into the lead by the gnarly rock section and then just got ru- ined on a nasty hill climb that took me multiple attempts, and I had a huge deficit. I made a big push and closed the gap to the point I could've won. Then I cramped up last lap and couldn't get the job done. Tough day for me with moments of brilliance, mixed with bad midrace decisions." "I got an okay start and went back and forth with Trystan, Cody and Jordan for a lot of the first lap," LeBlond said. "On the second lap, Trystan got a little gap on us, but I was still battling with Cody and Jordan. I broke or lost three shifters during the race and finished the last lap stuck in second gear with no shifter so that held me back a little. Me and Jordan were together for most of the race, and I managed to pass him on the last lap and open a little gap. CN OVERALL 1. Trystan Hart (KTM) 2. Cody Webb (She) 3. Ryder LeBlond (Hus) 4.
