Soapbox Challenge results

Correction: An earlier version of this article incorrectly stated Santiago Hoff came in third place in the 9- and 10-year-old division. Elias Lowell placed third in the race. This article has been updated to reflect the change.

Out of the 7- and 8-year-old’s, no one could beat Hania Richey, who finished in 16.38 seconds. Loki Koeneman (16.66) finished in second place and Crosby Landvik (16.68) nabbed the bronze.
