Lidia Cusack (Tofauti Everyone Active Majoco), also in the chase, finished fourth while Liliana Edwards was fifth.
"It was an amazing race, and I'm so, so happy to defend this one, and I was nervous about this for a while," Sarkisov said.
"I'm so grateful for my teammates who sacrificed themselves to put me on the top spot today, and I am so thankful to them. I'm excited to wear the stars-and-stripes for another year."
