June 8 - Blake Young scores first win

Young Scores First-Ever Win In Spectacular Fashion

Team M4 EMGO Suzuki's Blake Young made up for last week's double disappointment in Utah with a thrilling Superstock victory this afternoon at Road America.

The fast-rising star scored the first victory of his AMA career at his home track in most dramatic fashion, tracking down race-long leader Aaron Yates from more than five seconds back on a wet track to close right in on the Jordan Suzuki ace in the race's final corners.

The Madison, WI native tucked into Yates' draft as they charged up the hill to the checkered flag and he somehow found a path between Yates and the wall in time to score his maiden win by 0.219 seconds.
Making the feat all the more improbable was the fact that Young skipped this morning's wet Superstock session and qualified 22nd in the rain for this afternoon's Supersport contest.
