but Musquin took the overall with
a 1-2 score, while Osborne's 3-1
landed him in second place, and
Tomac ended up third with a 2-3
score.
Webb ended up fourth in the
moto over Anderson, Barcia,
Noren, Joey Savatgy, TPJ Rac-

Roczen.
"My start was awesome [in

Monster Energy Yamaha's Justin
Barcia, Rockstar Husqvarna's
Jason Anderson, Barcia's team-
mate Dean Ferris and the Rocky
Mountain ATV/MC KTM trio of
Benny Bloss, Blake Baggett
and Justin Bogle. Roczen came
home just behind Bogle.
In the second moto, Webb
got the holeshot, but Osborne
quickly struck and took the lead
when Webb nearly fell, making a
great save. Osborne led his first-

but had to settle
for third with a
2-3 finish.
