Spencer Hughes contended early in the third semifeature before a flat tire knocked him from contention. ... Scott, of Las Cruces, N.M., overtook Kyle Larson on the fifth lap and led the rest of the third 25-lapper. ... Martinsville, Ind.'s O'Neal led flag-to-flag in the fourth 25-lapper which ran caution-free. ...
