TOOELE, UTAH, JUNE 28—Braedon Ortt came out on top in what was another heated MotoAmerica KTM RC390 Cup battle to score his first win in the championship. The 15-year-old Canadian was able to break the draft to finish ahead of 14-year-old Brandon Paasch from New Jersey, who made his debut in the series this weekend as well as his first time on the KTM. In third was fellow New Jersey native, 15-year-old Anthony Mazziotto Jr., making it the youngest podium of the season.

Although it was Hayden Schultz that led the most laps, he got shuffled back and ultimately finished fourth. Series-points leader Gage McAllister finished fifth, his first time off the podium this season. Justin McWilliams was sixth ahead of Brandon Altmeyer.

In eighth was Josh Serne and rounding out the top 10 was Alejandro Gutierrez and Gabe Miller.
