VOLUME 57 ISSUE 7 FEBRUARY 19, 2020 P33 Bollinger Sidelined With Injury R ockstar Energy Husqvarna Team rider Trevor Bollinger injured his knee while competing in the open- ing round of the Kenda AMA National Enduro Series in South Carolina, Feb- ruary 2. He suffered a torn ACL and meniscus in his left leg as the result of a crash. After taking a week off, it was de- termined that Bollinger would need to undergo surgery to repair the torn liga- ments. The North Carolina native was slated to compete in the 2020 Grand National Cross Country Series and AMA National Enduro Series but will instead watch from the sidelines for an indefinite period while he goes through his recovery process. "This off-season went very smoothly, and I was feeling really good coming into the 2020 season. Unfortunately, I crashed in the third test at the National Enduro season opener, and I tried my best to push through the rest of the day. After a week of intense swelling in my knee, I decided to get it checked out, and now I will be heading into surgery next week. It's a bummer for my team and myself as we had everything in place to be a good year." CN Lawrence's Return On Hold G eico Honda's Hunter Lawrence was hoping to suit up for the opening round of the 2020 250SX East Championship at the February 15 Tampa Supercross, but his return has been put on hold. The young Aussie and hopeful title contender for the Geico Honda Team suffered a shoulder injury earlier this year, and it now looks as though he might sit out the entire AMA Supercross season and instead focus on the outdoor nationals. Lawrence's brother, Jett, who is competing in the 250SX West Championship, is also recovering from a broken collarbone suffered at the Anaheim 2 Supercross. CN Trevor Bollinger, one of Husqvarna's top off-road riders who was expected to compete for the 2020 GNCC title, will instead miss several rounds with a knee injury. Geico Honda's Hunter Lawrence could miss the entire 250SX East Championship with a shoulder injury.
