We got some amateur silly season news.
Rockstar Energy Husqvarna has signed Talon Hawkins and Casey Cochran.
Hawkins joined the team in 2019 and made his pro debut at Spring Creek before racing Loretta Lynn’s were he finished eighth overall in Open Pro Sport (9-12-4) and then fourth overall in 250 Pro Sport (8-3-3). He then raced the final two rounds of Pro Motocross with the team.
In the post, Husqvarna said Hawkins will compete in A this year “on his way to turning pro.”
After racing a GasGas in 2021, Cochran raced a Husqvarna at Loretta Lynn’s in August and grabbed two titles in the 125 Jr. and Schoolboy 1 (12-17) B/C and received the Youth Rider of the Year award.
Cochran, a five-time Loretta Lynn champ, will join the team to compete in B and Schoolboy 2 classes this year.
