Willoh grabbed the second-moto
holeshot followed by Esposito, Tiear"
ney, Windham and Matson. First-time
Pro Tyler Evans tangled with Matson
around the tower turn, and seconds
later Matson stuffed Evans. The two
began arguing and shoving each other,
and both riders were disqualified for
unsportsmanlike conduct and fighting
on the track. Willoh took the win but
immediately paid a visit to Matson and
spoke his mind. Esposito earned a 2-2
for second overall, Tiearney was third
overall, Windham fourth and Lash
fifth.
Matson got the first 250cc Pro
holeshot, leading for a lap before Willoh
took over. Mike Healey passed Matson
and set his sights on Willoh. Tiearney
was running fourth. Willoh pulled out a
lead at midrace and set the cruise con.trol.
Healey turned up the gas but
couldn't catch Willoh. Matson and
Tiearney battled for third with Matson
protecting every line, making it impossible for Tiearney to pass. Positions held
for the remainder of the race, with
Willoh, Healey, Matson, Tiearney and
Lash finishing in that order.
In moto two, Willoh, Tiearney and
Healey screamed to the first turn running side by side. WilJoh held the
Honda of Troy wide open, squeezing
out Tiearney and Healey from the lead.
Tiearney cut under Healey after a set
of jumps and took charge of second
place.
Healey pressed on but Tiearney was
on the gas and riding flawlessly. Matson, Lash, Paladino and Fields had their
own race going for fourth and fifth
spots. The three front-runners charged
hard with Tiearney catching WilJoh.
Healey fell off the pace a bit by the sixth
lap, but had a considerable lead on the
rest of the pack.
On the white-flag lap, Willoh had
about a three-second lead on Tiearney.
Willoh took the checkered with Tiearney right behind, and the two highfived to end a great race. Healey finished third, followed by Matson and
Lash.
