Mt. Morris, PA –
June 14, 2010 –
  The Rockstar Energy Suzuki Motocross team is
continuing to build momentum after another solid performance at the High
Point National in Mt. Morris, PA. Blake Baggett became the first member
of the team to put his Suzuki on the podium this season after taking
third place in the first moto, and went on to take fourth overall in the
250 class. Blake's 450-class teammate Tommy Hahn also made an
aggressive charge aboard his RM-Z450 in moto 2, taking fourth in that
race, and seventh
overall.

Moto 1 for the 250 class saw the riders battle it out
in the mud, due to heavy rain that pounded through the area. By the time
Blake Baggett and Hunter Hewitt lined up for the race, the
once-pristine track had turned into a muddy mess. Both riders were mired
in the mud at the start, but Blake made a hard charge for the front and
made it up to third, where he stayed for the rest of the race. The
second moto got rained on as well, but Blake finished inside the top ten
which gave him enough points to take fourth overall. Hunter finished
the 22-22 in the motos and 23rd overall.

Tommy Hahn continued to
put pressure on the 450 class leaders, running as high as fourth in the
first moto before having difficulties in the mud late in the race. At
the start of Moto 2, Tommy put the spurs to his RM-Z450 and charged up
to fourth again. "I was bummed that I didn’t end up on the podium this
time, after getting so close," said Hahn. "I'm happy
to know that I've got the speed to be up there running with the
leaders, though. I’m looking forward to getting another shot at Budds
Creek!" Tommy earned seventh overall, and enough points to maintain his
position inside the top-ten.

Jake Moss and Ryan Morais are still
recovering from the injuries they suffered during practice before the
Freestone round. Ryan went in for surgery on his broken thumb on
Wednesday, and is now taking time off to recover. He is projected to be
back on his bike in 4-6 weeks.

The fourth round of the AMA Pro
Motocross Nationals will take place at the famous Budds Creek track in
Mechanicsville, MD on June 19th.



Tommy Hahn is really
pouring on the heat in the 450 class, finishing fourth in the second
moto.


Blake Baggett was on point
in Pennsylvania, and finished the first moto in
third place.


Blake Baggett finished
fourth overall on Saturday after
his 3-9 moto finishes aboard his RM-Z250.
