Reigning Cup champion Ryan Blaney returned to the site of his first career NASCAR Cup Series win and pulled away from the field in the closing laps of Sunday’s The Great American Getaway 400 at a sold-out Pocono Raceway to deliver a strong reminder to the competition that he’s primed to contend for another season trophy.
• Friday’s CRC BRAKLEEN 175, Pocono Raceway Corey Heim earned his series’ best fifth victory of the season in Friday evening’s rain-interrupted CRC Brakleen 175 at Pocono Raceway. The 21-year-old driver swept both stages and led 55 of the 70 laps to add to his trophy total.

A¦er three years competing on the 14-turn, 2.439-mile Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course, the Cup Series returns to the iconic 2.5mile oval on Sunday. There are not many people as excited as Denny Hamlin for the “back to the future” Brickyard 400 presented by PPG.
The Artesia juniors little league all-stars won the state tournament, and will now play in the regional tournament. Team manager Donovan Garcia lost his voice in the excitement as Artesia defeated Silver City’s Copper Little League in the championship 18-2.
A rainbow shone over Jaycee Park as a drizzle let up just before the start of the game. That may have symbolized good things to come for Artesia Little League as they battled for a spot in the state tournament.
