250 OVERALL QUALIFYING RESULTS

In the second-seeded session, Haiden Deegan put himself on top early but was overcome by teammate Justin Cooper around the five-minute mark.  Hunter Lawrence battled times with Jo Shimoda in sixth and seventh. Haiden Deegan seems to bring the intensity in qualifying and is looking to carry that into motos. Past midway of qualifying, Max Vohland was able to surpass Justin Cooper for the lead position briefly, but Cooper would instantly take the spot back. With times being this close, it will be interesting to see how motos play out.

250 SEEDED QUALIFYING RESULTS SESSION 1

At the beginning of the first-seeded qualifying session, we see Deegan start behind Hunter Lawrence and follow him on the opening laps. Deegan would then go around Lawrence and set the first fast lap of the session. Lap times are very close on this more traditional type of Supercross track rather than the longer mixed-type tracks we had seen the past few weekends. Both Pierce Brown and Max Vohland would see the pole position in this practice, but Deegan quickly overcame it again as he was putting down fast times lap after lap. In the end, Haiden topped the field, followed by R.J. Hampshire.

250 UNSEEDED QUALIFYING RESULTS SESSION 1

In 250 unseeded session one, Cullin Park and Mitchell Oldenberg quickly put down some fast times.  Around the midway point of the practice, Chris Blose quickly grabbed the top position. Robbie Wageman would also get in a quick time positioned behind Blose. However, quite a bit would change headed into the remaining laps of the session, where ultimately, it would be riders Derek Kelley and his teammate Josh Varize taking first and second.
