Brandon Jones and the No. 20 Joe Gibbs Racing team are headed to the semi-final round of the NASCAR Xfinity Series Playoffs. Jones, a native of Atlanta, Georgia, earned his seventh career victory on Saturday, beating Connor Zilisch to win the Kansas Lottery 300.

After winning the pole, the 28-year-old driver paced the field for 54 of 200 laps on the afternoon, second to only Justin Allgaier, and went on to secure the victory after making the final pass for the lead on the final restart of the afternoon.

Of seven victories in the second-tier series for Jones, three have come at Kansas Speedway.

Connor Zilisch finished in second-place, with Austin Hill, Sammy Smith, and Sheldon Creed rounding out the top-five. Taylor Gray, Jesse Love, Nick Sanchez, Brenden Queen, and Dean Thompson rounded out the top-10 finishers.

NASCAR Xfinity Series Playoffs drivers that finished outside the top-10 include Justin Allgaier, who finished 13th after leading the most laps, Carson Kvapil in 15th, Sam Mayer in 16th, and Harrison Burton in 20th.
