June 12th is a day that a milestone was reached for WSMX trainer and Women’s Pro MX Championship contender, Marissa Markelon. Markelon, has long been a contender for Women’s MX biggest crown, but over the years consistency has been her greatest challenge. Well, on June 12th at Blue Diamond MX, she put that demon to rest by scoring an impressive 1/1 score in both motos to nab a popular and convincing win over her rivals. Marissa did it the hard way, coming from behind both motos to pass WMX series leader Mackenzie Tricker shortly before the checkers. Markelon and Tricker were followed by Jacqueline Strong, Annie Wernig and Amanda Brown rounded out the top 5. We are thrilled for Marissa and wish her and all the ladies the best of luck this year.
