Hershey Becomes Ninth Winner In Nine 358-Sprint races At Lincoln
Story By: BILL MEYER / LINCOLN SPEEDWAY – ABBOTTSTOWN, PA – Lady driver Brie Hershey got the monkey off her back by becoming the ninth winner in nine races so far this year in the 20-lap “358” sprint car feature. Hershey started on the pole beside Ashley Cappetta and was never caught. It was Hershey’s fourth career Lincoln win.
Points leader Adrian Shaffer started fourth and was scored second every lap, with Phil Walter, Brent Shearer, and Cappetta rounding out the top five. Sixth through tenth were Doug Hammaker, Tyler Ross (in a backup Tom Rumsey car), Kyle Denmyer, Ryan Higgins, and Todd Rittenhouse, Jr.
Heats for the 28 “358” Sprints were won by Walter, Shaffer, and Hammaker, with Rittenhouse winning the consolation.
