Jerrod Hull brings another title back to Southeast Missouri

It's been a good season for Scott County racers embarking on new traveling racing circuits.

Two weeks ago, Joey Mack of Benton clinched the championship of the first-year Mid-South Racing Association, a late model circuit based in Arkansas. On Friday, Jerrod Hull of Sikeston wrapped up the title in the inaugural season of the Midwest All Star Series when that tour's final event at Jacksonville, Ill., was called off.

Hull, a familiar winner in sprint events across the region, finished 232 points ahead of MASS runnerup Robbie Standridge of Springfield, Ill.

Among others from Southeast Missouri, Tim Montgomery of Fredericktown was seventh in the final MASS points; Tyler Thompson of Cape Girardeau was eighth; and Joey Montgomery of Fredericktown was 10th.
