Results Breakdown: East Canyon (UTB State Champs 2023)!

Congrats to everyone who participated at East Canyon! As we always say, it takes guts to show up to race, and we commend everyone who got after it on Saturday.

A special congrats to our 2023 State Champions! This year we had both Professional and Age Group Champions, similar to the Bear Lake Brawl in 2020. Their names are now joined alongside these prior year winners:

We also want to give a shout out to long-time local AG athlete Brice Williams, who finished 2nd overall in the men's race but is racing in the Pro field this season.
