After a spirited showdown between three-time
AMA Pro ATV Champion Chad Wienen and Pennsylvania
native Joel Hetrick, the defending race winner
at High Point, the hometown rider made the fans
proud with 1-1 moto sweep aboard his Hetrick Racing
/ Corrosion Specialties Honda. Hetrick’s back-to-back
wins over the last two rounds also vaulted him
past Wienen in the Pro ATV Motocross Championship
point standings.

When the gate dropped for the opening moto, Hetrick
scored the SSi Decals Holeshot Award, but Wienen
quickly got around him on his Wienen Motorsports
/ Maxxis / SSi Decals / Walsh Race Craft Yamaha
to lead the riders around the first lap.
The two battled back and forth for several more
laps until Hetrick capitalized on a mistake by
Wienen. Hetrick was able to hold off the advances
of the champ and captured the moto win by 10 seconds.
