Been looking around but having a hard time finding anything. Looked at spec sheets of several boards on the manufacturer websites, and they all seem to say gen1.

Am I missing something? I find, at least, 3 boards that support USB 3.1 Gen 2.
Asus Z370i Strix

MSI Z370i Gaming Pro Carbon

I think so. The Asus is Gen 2 on the front panel connector only, not the rear usb. I don't see anywhere on Asrock's site that it says other than Gen 1. The MSI is the only one I see that has rear panel USB 3.1 Gen 2 connections.

Ah, OP does not specify 'front' or 'rear' and so I thought I might as well throw this out to cover any or all of his potential needs.
And, the Asrock spec says the rear Thunderbolt 3 I/O is compatible with USB 3.1 Gen 2. That is why I count it as well.

Right you are, I totally missed the Thunderbolt.

Thanks. I was using pcpartpicker and for whatever reason, the carbon and fatal boards did not come up for me at all. I couldn't go with the as rock for other reasons but otherwise, I couldn't find much. Thanks for your help.
