After taking out a sprint victory in the Unbound Gravel 100 two weeks earlier, Kylee Hanel (Aegis) added the women's under-23 national championship title in the time trial in Charleston, West Virginia to her rapidly growing palmares.
The Tour of the Gila stage winner powered to the win by 36 seconds over Jorja Bond (CCB Kenetik P/B Levine Law Group) in the 16.7-kilometre race. Bond's teammate Alyssa Sarkisov was third, 1:03 slower.
The under-23 men's event ended up much closer, with Kade Kreikemeier (Meridian Racing) knocking more than a minute off the time that put him fifth last year to win the 33.4km test by four seconds over Cole Owen (Team Winston Salem).
