Lapped riders played a huge role
in Cooper's favor as Lawrence
was unable to make a pass in
the final laps. The pace of these
two pushed them within three
seconds of Jett, with Cooper
being the cheese in between
the Lawrence sandwich. Hunter
came out firing in moto two with
a big holeshot prior to leading
all 17 laps. He rode away from

ROOKIE OF THE YEAR
Drew Adams earned Rookie of
the Year honors for the 2025 sea-
son. The Monster Energy Pro Cir-
cuit Kawasaki rider set the fastest
lap last weekend in Unadilla and
nearly took the top spot again
at Budds Creek but ultimately
ended up second. He finished a
season-best fifth in three differ-

season points standings. "It was a
fun season of outdoors," he said.
"I had some ups and downs, but
overall, a good day. The highlight
of the day was earning Rookie of
the Year. That was my goal from
the start of the season, so I'm re-
ally pumped to have achieved it."
