MATTHEW LEBLANC
Matthew LeBlanc has been hanging out around the top step of the podium in the 65 and 85 classes for the better part of a few years now. This blazing fast kid from Millsaps Training Facility by way of the great state Louisiana is one of the best amateurs
in the game. He has been fine-tuning his game down at MTF along side one of his best friends and main competitor Ryder DiFrancesco. The two are always riding together pushing each other to new heights to the benefit of both. LeBlanc even went home with the Californian DiFrancesco to get some seat time on the west coast tracks to prepare for the Pala California Classic. That competitiveness during practice has elevated LeBlanc to new heights and it has been showing in his recent results. At the mini O’s last November he brought home an astounding seven championships, at the RCSX a month ago he brought home two championships and at the JS7 Freestone national he collected two more. He has truly been the man to beat in the 65 classes and he might just be the favorite to grab the titles at Loretta Lynn’s this summer. LeBlanc has never won a title down at the ranch so that will serve as an extra little bit of motivation as we get closer to August.
