Reigning series champion Jesse Love clinched the title last year at Toledo Speedway, but it was Joe Gibbs Racing’s William Sawalich who celebrated in victory lane. It marked the third straight Toledo victory for the No. 18 team, which includes wins by NASCAR Cup Series star Ty Gibbs in 2021 and NASCAR Xfinity Series standout Sammy Smith in 2022.
