VOL. 53 ISSUE 31 AUGUST 9, 2016 P55 CHAMPIONSHIP, PRESENTED BY AMSOIL KTM rider Sean Cantrell—who rode a KTM 350 SX-F—in the fi- nal moto. Sexton nearly crashed while chasing Cantrell for the win in that third moto, but backed it down, not wanting to risk the championship. Sexton also set the quickest lap time of the week with a 1:52.716. For Cantrell, Loretta's was a bit of a disappointment. The Californian's moto results were all over the board. He did take second overall in Open Pro Sport (8-2-1) and seventh in 250 A (2-7-15), but he had higher expectations. Husky's Michael Mosiman took third overall in Open Pro Sport, while Iowa's Cameron McAdoo, who was riding with an injured shoulder, took fourth. Georgia's Egan Mastin rounded out the top five overall. Sexton also took runner-up honors in 250 A, finishing sec- ond to a very fast Bradley Taft on the Horton Racing Yamaha YZ250F. Taft went 1-2-1 and, like Sexton, the rider from Missouri will also make his pro debut at Unadilla but on a CycleTrader. com/Rock River Yamaha. Minnesota's Jerry Robin used consistency to win the inaugural 250 All-Star A/B (14+) division. A 2-3-3 on his SOBMX Yamaha was the key to his success. Jordan Jarvis (Yamaha) and Jazzmyn Canfield (Yamaha) bat- tled back and forth all week long for the Women (14+) Amateur title. They went into the deciding (12-14) class with 1-5-3. AMSOIL Honda/Factory Connection Chase Sexton of La Moille, Illinois will begin his pro career next week at Unadilla as a member of the GEICO Honda Team and will do so with a lot of confidence after leaving Loretta Lynn's with a big overall victory in the Open Pro Sport class, where he rode a 250F to victory with 1-1-2 moto scores. His only blem- ish came at the hands of TLD/ shined in the mud (and dry) and earned Amateur National Cham- pionship titles in the 85cc (9-11) Limited and 85cc (9-12) classes. He took two moto wins, three seconds and a third over the week. In his young career, he has already amassed a record eight minicycle titles at Loretta's. The Masterpools pulled off a double of sorts. Brothers Ty and Jake each took home a title to Texas. Ty got his in the Mini Sr. 2
