College A (16-21)

Landers came into the final round with a championship title on his mind, knowing exactly what he needed to do in order to achieve his goal. Off the start, Landers jumped into the middle of the pack as he patiently made his way into 3rd by the end of lap one. Landers soon moved into the 2nd place position and from there he rode a steady pace behind the leader to ultimately finish 2nd for the day but 1st for the season with the College A (16-21) National Championship.

"This was a race I definitely won't forget!" Landers said. "I knew what I had to do before the start of the race and I did just that! I just focused on riding a steady pace and not making any mistakes and my Coastal Racing Yamaha was flawless all day long. I'm so happy to come away with the College A Championship and Overall Top Amateur for the year! I can't thank my Coastal Racing team enough for all they have done to help me make it happen, couldn't have done it without them!" 

Team rider Eli Kiger got off to a top five start in the College A (16-21) class where he quickly pushed his way into the 2nd place position just before the motocross track. Kiger kept the momentum rolling as he made the pass for the lead and maintained the top spot for the first half of the opening lap. Unfortunately Kiger got tangled with another rider on the hill climb and lost substantial time. Despite a hard charge to reclaim his lost positions, Kiger was only able to make it up to 15th place.

"I had a really good start, I went into the woods 5th and was able to lead for half of the first lap until I got tangled up on a hill climb with a slower rider a fell way back," Kiger said. "I rode hard for a few laps until I started cramping up and from there I just tried to get through it to the finish."

XC1 Pro UTV

Team driver Sean Bogdan and his co-pilot Jade Kiger got off to a slow start in the UTV race as they were unable to fire their machine up off the line. Bogdan eventually got it going and the duo made their way to the first turn in the dead last position. From there, Bogdan pushed his way into the 3rd place spot and began a race-long battle with the front runners of the class. In the end, Bogdan and Kiger were able to finish 4th overall for the day, missing the podium by less than one second on the adjusted time clock.
