The combined segment overall finish would have Robinson Shawn King and dad Bryan King with a three way tie all having five points. By virtue of the final segment Robinson is scored the winner with Shawn in second and Bryan in third. Keegan Tabor and Lucas Balch completed the top five.

Following Donnelly across the line in segment two were Will Hull second and Troy Comeau third. Scott Holcomb and Kadyn Berry completed the top five.
