In a race that was as wild as advertised in the closing laps, Ryan Blaney sped past crashing Jimmie Johnson and Martin Truex Jr. in the final corner to win Sunday’s inaugural Bank of America ROVAL 400 at the Charlotte Motor Speedway Road Course.

The Rebels took a punch Friday night, and then they punched back. Hard.

On its first play from scrimmage, Gaffney notched its first and only points of the half on a 96-yard pass play.

The quick score didn’t rattle Reggie Shaw’s Rebels, as they cruised to a 34-14 victory.

An undefeated Eastside team ran into its toughest test of the season last Friday, falling 49-23 on the road to Chapman.
The Eagles first loss came after a closely contested first half. Eastside trailed 14-10 heading into intermission, but the Chapman offense went into high gear late, putting the game out of reach.
