over second, followed by Jordan
Renfro (KTM) and Pepperd.
At the finish, the order was
Adams, Stevens, Pepperd, Ham-
den Hudson and Reven Gordon.
"I
had a pretty bad start,"
said Adams. "I just tried to be
smooth but aggressive, and
once I worked my way up to
second, Adams was really rip-
ping, and I thought I was in first,
but
he was so far ahead I just
couldn't see him. Finally, I put
down a good charge, and he,
unfortunately, went down, and I
got the win. I just tried to keep
my head down and work the lap-
pers the best I can."
Adams also
returned to the
starting line to win the Open A
division over Reven Gordon and
Noah Stevens.
In the WMX (Pro Women's
class), Hannah Hodges
(Husqvarna) took the champion
-
ship with Sophia Phelps (Kawa-
saki) and Jamie Astudillo (KTM)
in second
and third, respec-
tively. Hodges grabbed the lead
from
the start and pulled away
to a five-second lead at the
finish, while Phelps (Kawasaki)
and Astudillo battled for second,
with Phelps edging out Astudillo
by less than two seconds for the
runner-up honors.
"I knew the lappers were
going to be tough, and the ruts
were gnarly this year," said
Hodges. "I'm excited to be here.
All my bikes are broken. I got
married last week, and I haven't
ridden since Kings Cup, but I've
always loved this place and like
racing here."
