Rockstar Energy Husqvarna SX/MX Team Manager To Step Down S tephen Westfall, aka "Scu- ba," has announced that he will soon step down as the team manager for the Rockstar En- ergy Husqvarna Team. Westfall has managed the team since 2020. Westfall began his tenure in 2008 as a technician and in 2014, he was promoted to crew chief for the Husqvarna factory team, and then promoted to team manager in 2020, leading the squad to a very successful season which culminated with a first-time 450MX Championship from Zach Osborne. "This is probably the hardest decision I've ever had to make but ultimately I have decided to step down as team manager and head back to the East Coast to spend more time with my family," Westfall said. "I want to thank Husqvarna Motorcycles for giv- ing me the opportunity to work here over the past eight years and wishing my Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing Team all the best in the upcoming season—I will be rooting for them every weekend!" Westfall will remain on-board through the West Coast rounds of the 2022 AMA Supercross Championship to help the team transition to a new manager, which will be announced at a later date. CN IN THE WIND P42 Stephen Westfall says he plans to step down as the team manager for the Rockstar Energy Husqvarna SX/MX Team.
