(Greendale, Ind.) – A repeat trip to Tennessee is in store for a teenager from Greendale.  

For a second year in a row, Drew Embleton has qualified for the Monster Energy AMA Amateur National Motocross Championship at Loretta Lynn Ranch on July 29-August 3.

The 14-year-old will compete in two different classes. He will be racing as #12 in 250B Mod and #21 in Schoolboy 2 (12-17).

Last year, Embleton ranked 8th in the 250 C Jr (12-17 Limited) and 450 C classes.

Embleton has been riding since he was six years old. He currently trains at ClubMX in South Carolina.

“Ever since I was 6 years old and my dad bought me my first dirt bike and letting me ride in the open fields by the speedway levee, I always wanted to race at the Loretta Lynns MX Championship,” Embleton said.
