"McDermand Claims Franklin B Alexander for Win Nine “

September 4, 2021- Sycamore, IL-- Twenty-seven midgets were on hand for the Franklin B. Alexander Memorial event at Sycamore Speedway on Saturday night opening up the final doubleheader weekend for Badger Midget Series stars. The finish will go down as one for the memory banks for the fans.

Chase McDermand revved things up early by locking down the Schoenfeld Headers quick time with a 14.535 on a very fast and beautifully prepared racetrack. In preliminary action 'KO' Kevin Olson was forced to drive the car with one hand to keep it in gear but managed to secure the win in the Madison Extinguisher Service Non-Qualifier race before his crew could get to work on his 9k machine. Lamont Critchett, Sean Murphy, and McDermand all scored heat wins on the evening.

In the High-Performance Lubricants B-Main, twelve cars would do battle to claim the final seven starting spots in the night’s A-Main. Kyle Koch jumped out to the lead and led most of the race before being passed by Cody Weisensel late. Weisensel went on to secure the victory followed by Koch, 'KO', Kevin Douglas, Shay Sassano, Jake Goeglein, and Dave Collins Jr who all advanced to the finale.

Daltyn England and Mike Stroik brought the field to green with Stroik jumping out to the early advantage, while the field scattered behind the duo. Tyler Baran moved from his 5th starting spot to challenge for the lead before a hard crash off of turn four halted the action. Rookie Kyle Stark got turned around and collected Stroik and K.O. ending all of their chances at claiming the top prize. All three drivers were able to climb out under their own power. When action resumed the cream was beginning to rise. From their middle row starting positions Jeff Zelinski, Zach Boden, and Chase McDermand were solidly inside the top 5 and poised to challenge for the win. Baran said postrace the track changed under yellow which opened the door for McDermand to slide into the lead just past halfway. In the closing laps, Lamont Critchett picked his way into 4th around Zelinski a lap later he was in second, hot on the leader’s heels. McDermand working the low line and with Critchett up on the cushion, the two were wheel to wheel as they took the white flag bringing the crowd to their feet. McDermand with a timely slider in turn one made a great move to block the crossover coming from Critchett and was on his way to his ninth victory of the season. By winning tonight’s event, he has cemented his place in the Badger Midget history books by capturing his third straight series crown. Making McDermand just the third driver to ever do so in series history.

The Badger Midget Series will end the weekend at Angell Park Speedway, Sunday night for the Firemans Nationals. Only three events remaining in the 2021 season.
