Two-time winner this season Christian Eckes clocked in third. Carson Hocevar, who will make his first career NASCAR Cup Series start this weekend at Gateway, qualified fourth, and Stewart Friesen, the fastest Toyota, completed the top five.

Zane Smith, Jake Garcia, Chase Purdy, Nick Sanchez and Grant Enfinger round out the top 10.

Jesse Love, who will make his first career start by filling in for the ill Corey Heim in the No. 11 Toyota Tundra, slotted himself in 20^th position. Love was scheduled to drive the No. 1 entry for TRICON Garage and will be replaced by Toni Breidinger, who finished qualifying in 18^th position.

Matt Crafton and Rajah Caruth did not make a lap for qualifying and will start at the tail of the field. They roll off 34^th and 35^th, respectively.
