Noah Gragson was in trouble Saturday when he got spun out in the tri-oval by teammate Justin Allgaier, causing the Big One.  Luckily, he came out of it all but unscathed and finished 10th.  He minimized any losses, losing only three points to Chase Briscoe.  Briscoe finished 18th, but won stage two and earned 18 stage points, more than anyone else.  Austin Cindric is up one place to third after finishing fourth.  Ross Chastain is up to fourth after finishing second.

Harrison Burton dropped two places to fifth after being eliminated in a crash with 18 laps to go.  Justin Haley moved up to sixth after claiming his first career Xfinity Series victory.  Brandon Jones is down one place to seventh after crashing late and finishing 16th.  Allgaier remains in eighth after causing the Big One and failing to finish.

Michael Annett is up one place to ninth after recovering from the Big One to finish 12th.  Ryan Sieg had multiple tire issues Saturday and finished 30th, dropping the No. 39 to 10th in points.  Riley Herbst crashed out early and finished 37th, but kept the 11th spot in points.  Brandon Brown is still the last driver in the playoffs, but moved up one place to 12th after finishing 11th.

The idle Daniel Hemric dropped one place to 13th, while Myatt Snider moved up a place to 14th, first driver out of the playoffs.  He is 36 points behind Brown with races in Richard Childress Racing's No. 21 coming up.  Josh Williams crashed out with Burton and dropped to 15th, while Alex Labbe finished ninth and stays in 16th.
