Neal put on a charge in the final lap but he wasn't able to catch the lead battle before the checkered flag came out. With a host of top-five finishes behind him, Neal's 3rd place finish vaulted him up to 2nd overall in the Championship Standings after four rounds of racing.

"We got off to a much better start this week and we didn't have to work so hard to climb through the pack. We tracked down Fowler and McGill and battled with them for the rest of the day," Neal said. "We gambled on the pit stop and decided to go a lap later and all was going according to plan until a bottleneck on the hill caused us to all bunch up again and I was passed when I had to pit for gas. We ended up 3rd overall on the day and we're very happy because this is my least favorite race out of the year!"

Coastal Racing/Answer/Maxxis/Waynesburg Yamaha's Drew Landers continued his dominance in the College A (16-21) class as he came away with a victory of nearly seven minutes ahead of the 2nd place rider. Landers shot off the line to capture the holeshot and the early lead in the class. Landers maintained his lead position throughout the entire two-hour race as he consistently pulled a gap on the rest of the field.

With three consecutive wins behind him, Landers jumped up in the Championship Standings to sit only six points behind the leader with nine rounds of racing left to go.

"North Carolina treated me very well!" Landers said. "Thanks to my Coastal-powered Yamaha I pulled the holeshot and grabbed the early lead. I took off into the woods and never looked back. I charged strong all day long, working through riders from rows in front of me on a tough track to pass on. I ended the day with 1st in College A and 12th overall for my third straight Top Amateur award. I'm pumped on my performance this weekend and ready to start work for Round 5!"

Eli Kiger got off to a top-five start in the College A (16-21) class where he quickly set his sights on the podium battle ahead. Kiger maintained the 5th place position through the first two laps before making his move into 4th just before the halfway point. Despite a hard charge, Kiger wasn't able to reach the podium battle but the young rider held strong to match his best finish of the season with 4th place in the class.
