MATTHEW LEBLANC
Only a few riders get to come to Loretta’s epresenting the number 1 plate signifying that they won the class a year ago. Matthew LeBlanc was one of those riders coming back to defend his title. He successfully did so in the 65cc 7-11 class with 2-1-2 moto scores. After the first race it looked like the defending champ and the rest of the field was going to be chasing down the #58 of Hunter Yoder who won moto 1 by 45 seconds and put in the fastest lap. LeBlanc came out moto 2 and battled for second position with Ryder DiFrancesco for the first half of the race and then started to break away
and chip at Yoders lead. Matthew kept the pressure on and Hunter made a mistake on the final lap giving the defending champ the moto win.
