What won the race: Using an inside move to take the lead from Tyler Peterson at turn-two exit, seventh-starting Shane Edginton of East Saint Paul, Manitoba, led the final 13 laps to win Saturday's $9,200 17th annual John Seitz Memorial at River Cities Speedway. Edington earned his first career victory in the prestigious WISSOTA-sanctioned event.

Quotable: “Oh man, I’ve been wanting to get to this victory lane so, so long,” Edginton said. “We struggled so bad at the start of this year and to win this thing, this is just amazing. To (win) this in front of everybody, all my friends and family are here, everybody came down, this is such a big event to Canadians. I don’t know, I think Tyler (Peterson) broke something, just misfortunate luck, but the car was spot on. This is my Daytona 500, I don’t need to win another race again in my life after winning this deal.”

Key notes: Peterson, of Hickson, N.D., led laps 33-79 before making contact with an infield tire while racing amongst lapped traffic, folding his nose under the left-front tire; Peterson slid back to fourth before making contact with Cole Searing on lap 84, sending Searing spinning and drawing the race's final caution. Peterson took responsibility for the caution and pulled off, while Searing was allowed to retain the fourth position. ... Twentieth-starting Chad Becker moved into the runner-up spot on the lap-85 restart and trailed Edginton for the final seven laps, finishing 1.802 seconds back. ... Pole-starting Searing, of Huron, S.D., rounded-out the podium. ... Second-starting Cole Schill led the first 32 laps before the race's fourth caution for a planned fuel stop; Schill never led again and faded to finish fourth. ... Bryce Sward improved eight positions and finished fifth. ... Jeff Provinzino gained 17 spots and finished eighth. ... Winner of Thursday's $1,892 Prelude to the Johnny, sixth-running Mike Greseth pulled off on lap 84 along with Peterson. ... Saturday's 92-lap feature was slowed by eight cautions, including three 10-minute red flags and lasted 77 minutes, with 10 drivers completing the entire distance and 15 running at the finish. ... The event honored John Seitz, the four-time Northern LateModel Racing Association series champion who died of apparent natural causes while on a snowmobile trip in 2007, at the age of 36.

On the move: Chad Becker of Aberdeen, S.D., started 20th and finished second.
