>> The Mosiman name has become well known in the motocross com- munity over the last few years. First it was Josh Mosiman who was a privateer on a Husqvarna and just a rookie 2 years ago and now Michael Mosiman who races for the Rockstar Energy factory Husqvarna team. Mi- chael has ran upfront with the top guys so far this season and has prov- ing that he will be a threat for years to come. The most impressive thing about Mosiman so far since his professional career started 2 weekends ago is that he looks like one of the veterans on the track come race time. This weekend was no different as the #342 Husky rider had to battle his way from terrible starts to respectful finishes. In moto one Michael came around in 26th after the opening lap. At the midway point Mosiman found himself in 15th. In the final stages of the race M.Mosiman turned the heat up and made impressive passes fellow rookie Mark Worth and veteran Kyle Cunningham before finishing up in 12th. @michaelmosiman342 got a much better start in the second race rounding the first turn nearly ten positions better then he did in the first moto. That being said, a 17th place start is far away from where you want to start and usually leaves you buried in the field. Mosiman once again battled all the way to the finish line, taking the final top 10 position from Cantrell with under two laps to go. Michael has flown under the radar much of the year simply because the battles inside of the top 5 have been happening more often then not this year but you guarantee that the #342 will have a break out top 5 here soon.
