It was another up and down day for Hepler at his home track in Delmont, PA.

Qualifying 2nd in practice, Hepler's confidence showed in the first moto. He got off to a 2nd-place start and soon made the move to take the lead. A mistake a few laps later cost him a place, but he quickly made up for it and secured the lead once more, holding on for the moto win.

Moto 2 started off well as Hepler started 6th and easily passed up to 2nd, which is all he would have needed for the overall. Then back luck struck as a crash set him back to 7th, then another crash took him out of the running all together.

Next week the series travels to Texas for round 11.
