Title Fight Grows Closer in WMX Class on Versus

Wednesday, June 24 with Hangtown National at 6 p.m. ET

‚ 

MORGANTOWN, W.V. (June 23, 2009) - After an exciting debut on National television last week, the Women's Motocross Class of the Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Championship will once again hit the airwaves, with round two airing on the Versus Network June 24, at 6 p.m. ET.

Honda Red Bull Racing's Ashley Fiolek made a strong statement by winning the opening round, but her hard-charging rival Jessica Patterson battles back at the Hangtown Motocross Classic to tighten the championship chase. In the fight for third, Vicki Golden, Sherri Cruse and Sara Price inch closer to the front and go bar-to-bar looking for the final spot on the podium.

Lucas Oil TV hosts Jim Holthus and Dave Arnold will have all the action in the booth as Keli Snyder joins them trackside for the latest from the pits.
