After being sidelined for most of the season, Sheryl Loan commanded victory in her first race of the season Wednesday in the Rabbit Creek Road Race.

Loan took off early and never gave the pack of expert women a chance to catch up, beating the group by over 20 seconds.

Matt Jordan did it all over again, repeating his victory on the same course two months prior, sprinting past Josh Yeaton at the finish line.
