Monty Beagle, Ryan O'Connor: Your Saturday and Sunday Fall Finale Champions! 🍁
The second annual Fall Finale, presented by S&T Property Maintenance, hit the weather jackpot, drawing 200 entries (108 in No Box). Making it the largest bracket race in Saskatchewan history. The fans were treated to some tight action!
Saturday's $7,500 race stretched over two days as we battled multiple oil-downs, with the first big cheque handed out Sunday morning. At the Box/No Box merge, some of the biggest names on the property were still alive.
7 Cars: Jenna Michaud and Bobby Bell (No Box) led off. Bell was .003 to Michaud’s .009, with Michaud taking .001 at the stripe to punch her ticket to the final 4. Monty Beagle and Ryan O'Connor squared off, where Monty put down 13-total to lock out O'Connor for a trip to the semis. Tyson Derenoski (No Box) faced Daylen Miller (our 2025 Saturday champ); Derenoski was .011 to Miller’s .009, and Derenoski put it dead-zero for an 11-total while Miller elected to get behind and run 1 above. Derenoski advanced to 4 cars. Braydon Heroux (No Box) had the single, securing his spot in the final 4.
4 Cars: Beagle met Derenoski (No Box). Derenoski was .001 to Beagle’s .024, Derenoski puts it two hundredths under the dial, sending Monty Beagle to the final round. Heroux (No Box) faced Michaud: Heroux was .002 to Michaud’s .022. Michaud landed it dead-on while Heroux got behind .001, sending Michaud to the final.
