3. Noah Gragson, 2,022 points

Last year’s Martinsville (Va.) Speedway winner locked himself into this year’s playoffs by virtue of a triumph at Kansas Speedway in May, but Noah Gragson’s real prowess during the regular season was in winning stages.

Gragson collected a series-high seven stage victories during the first 16 races and in doing so, propelled himself into the conversation as one of the Truck Series title contenders entering the playoffs. Winning stages won’t be enough to earn Gragson the championship, though. He’ll need to get back to victory lane, likely more than once.
