ROANOKE, Va. – Dreams turning into reality.

10 News Anchor Rachel Lucas was able to participate in this year’s annual Gauntlet Business Competition as a judge.

Over $300,000 was awarded in cash and in-kind prizes, but the big winner was Gray Lane.

Lane is the owner of “410 on Main” out of Covington, and he took home over $27,000 Thursday night.
