native overcame an injured
wrist to finish third on her KTM.
Riding a 350 gave her more
confidence on the tough track
as she battled childhood friend
Morgan throughout.
"I'm really stoked with the
class change and giving
more people a chance in the
Pro classes," Richards said.
"Alex and I were having a
great battle, but I had a wreck
yesterday in Pro Women, and
I have a bum wrist. So, I was
just holding on for the last half
an hour. Alex and I are good
friends, and we grew up racing
together so it's always fun rac-
ing with him."
Richards also kept up her
winning streak in the Pro
Women class, winning despite
the crash. Taylor Allred was
second, ahead of Ava Silvestri.
All were riding KTMs. Richards
is happy to see that the com-
petitiveness of the Pro Women
class has led to more woman
and girls competing.
"I love seeing more and
more little girls out here racing
in the some of the youth class-
es," said Richards. "Women in
racing is really growing and I
see more and more every year.
That's always good to see." CN
