JALEK SWOLL
KILPATRICK
Jalek Swoll sparked an incredibly successful streak of results at Loretta Lynn’s back in 2013 after winning the 85 (9-11) Limited class aboard a KTM. In that same year, he podi- umed the 85 (9-11) Mod class, and the next year in Mini Sr. 1 and 2 he racked up two more podiums. He was on track to extend his podium streak in 2015 after finishing in third place in the first Supermini 1 moto, but a nasty crash sidelined him for the remainder of the week. The Floridian came back with a vengeance last year on his Husqvarna TC125 and he dominated the Schoolboy 1 (12-16) class and the 125 (12-16) class with three moto victories and three second place finishes. Swoll remains one of the most successful riders competing at the Ranch in 2017 with seven overall podium finishes and three titles, instantly establishing him as one of the favorites to take the checkered flag anytime he lines up on the gate. The Rockstar Husqvarna rider hasn’t slowed down throughout the 2017 season, winning a title at every race that he’s entered -- Swoll grabbed a number one plate at the Daytona RCSX and put in a flawless performance at the JS7 Freestone Spring Championship that earned him two titles. He showed no signs of slowing down with another pair of overall victories at the Gatorback Youth Regional, sending a message to his competitors across the nation that he’s the man to beat at Loretta’s. w
