The surprising performance in the 125 class came from Andrew Short. He’s been gaining momentum in the 125 class and at Washougal, ended up leading the most laps in both motos. Short led the first moto until lap 11 when Tedesco overtook him. He continued to dice with Hepler in the late-race but ultimately held on for a second place finish.Short was out front again in the second moto, this time dicing with Josh Grant. Grant began to lose momentum, leaving Short an opportunity to pull away, but Helper had been steadily picking his way throught the pack. He overtook short on lap ten and held on to the lead to the finish followed by Short, Tedesco and Davi Millsaps.The Washougal course seemed to take its course on a number of riders in the 125 class: Grant Langston, Mike Alessi and Mike Brown all had a weekend they’d rather forget.Washougal made last week’s hard luck in Colorado seem fortunate for Brown, who suffered a DNF in the first moto followed by a tenth place for 17th overall. Alessi had his worst performance of the year with a 7-21 finish for 14th place and Grant Langston slipped to seventh overall after “stalls and falls” in the second moto relinquished him to 26th.Tedesco’s second overall win in a row has boosted him well into the points lead ahead of Brown and Alessi – now over 40 points ahead of the field. Alessi is barely hanging on to third place, only one point over Honda’s Josh Grant.The series now takes a week off – giving riders a chance to come to SoCal for some X-Games / Surfercross fun. The AMA Motocross Championship Series will return August 14th at the Spring Creek Motocross Park in Millville, MN.Washougal Overall Results – 250 Class
