1. Tarrez Turns It Up at New Hampshire Tarrez Martínez muscled past Byron Armstrong in double overtime to score his 19th career win and advance to the Round of 8. Aggressive, bold, and clutch when it mattered most.
2. Byron Denied in Overtime Thriller Byron Armstrong dominated much of the day, but Tarrez’s bump-and-run cost him the victory. Still, Byron leaves New Hampshire 2nd in playoff points — a strong position heading to Kansas.
3. Mikal Leonard Stays on Top With 3117 points, Leonard continues his reign as the points leader. He hasn’t needed wins lately — his consistency is carrying him, but Kansas could be his next strike.
4. Cutline Chaos Brewing Only 6 points separate 8th-place Chase Taylor from 11th-place Bessie Hines. The battle for the final transfer spot is tighter than ever. Expect fireworks at Kansas.
5. Rookie Spotlight: Highs & Lows
• Carter Williams (R) and Travis Hollow (R) sit comfortably inside the top 5.
• Hunter Alfredo (R) and Ryan Sanchez (R) are below the cutline and under pressure to deliver in the next two races.
