“I am so thrilled to have finally won my first na-
tional championship,” said Gutish. “So much time
and effort goes into making a dream like this a
reality, and even then there’s no guarantees. The
2019 TKO women’s final was one of those rare
races when everything goes perfectly. I got a
fantastic start, stayed smooth and consistent lap
after lap, and controlled the race from beginning
to end. I was racing against the most talented
field of women to ever line up at the Knock Out,
and I couldn’t be happier with my results and
performance! I’m so glad I could bring home a
national championship for Beta after the series of
injuries and setbacks I fought through earlier this
season!”
Nate Smith won the Saturday morning race and
moved on to finish 15th in Sunday’s final. Mean-
while, seventeen-year-old Ryder LeBlond took
the Amateur win to earn the AMA Amateur Ex-
treme Enduro Grand National Championship.
