CADEN BRASWELL
Caden Braswell is one of the newest additions to the RM ARMY as he’s been tasked with leading their resurgence through the amateur ranks throughout the 2017 season. The Florida native has jumped around between a few different brands in the past year, but he’s finally found a consistent home with Suzuki, and the pairing has already produced some positive results. Braswell has been one of the most consistent riders to show at Loretta Lynn’s Ranch in the past couple of years, scoring a trio of second place overall finishes between the classes that he entered in 2015 and 2016. Braswell has been all business throughout the first half of the 2017 season, doing exactly what needs to be done in order to complete the job at hand. The Team Dunlop Elite rider earned three podium finishes, including a win in the Mini Sr. (9-13) class at the Millcreek Spring Classic to start his season off on the right foot. He went onto the JS7 Freestone Spring Championships where he encountered some obstacles, but overcoming them at the end of the week with a couple of good starts and solid rides. Braswell found his usual form at the Gatorback Youth Regional, finishing on the podium in all three classes as he punched his ticket to the Ranch in style. After all of the second place finishes, it’s unlikely that the Suzuki rider will be satisfied with anything less than his first Loretta Lynn’s National Championship.
