By Rupert F. Pellett
SUGAR GROVE, OH,M~ Y18
Tea m Green ' s Brock Sellards was the ma n to
beat at this Central Ohio motocr oss course as he
dominated the 125cc A clas s and then took a
stro ng seco nd be hin d fellow Kaw asaki pilo t
Vince Karnow in the 250cc A divis ion.
Though Sellards won the 12Seeclass overall, it
wasn't without a fight as local riders Josh Demuth
• fresh off the supercross series - and Chris Berry
offered fierce competition. In B-class action it was
the Honda of Mark Burkhart out front in all four
motos of the 125 and 250cc events, as he wou ld
sweep the class and seemingly keep up his reputati on as the East Coast's fastest amateur. The
beau tifu l, ba lmy we ather and fine track were
agreeable to Veteran-class rider Mike Morgan. as
he destroyed the competition in the Over 25 and
Over 30 divisions aboard his VZ25O.

pack . Dubin inherited th e lead that he would
hold to the fini sh. Th ompson claimed second
over Bomber Hernandez. who came through the
pack for third .
Brian Kent was untouchabl e in the second
moto, lead ing from the d rop of the gate to the
checkered flag. Thompson spen t three laps looking for a wa y ar ound Orr befor e making the

ninth-place start to take home the second-place
trophy with • 1-4 sho,,; ng. Kent's second-moto
win coupled with a fifth in round one gave him
third in the standi ngs.
Jerry Aleman went wire-to-wire for the first
