Out of a field of 20 BMX riders, Blake Lamb won the BMX park competition Sunday at the Gatorade Free Flow Tour’s final stop of the 2009 season, held in Joplin, Mo. Sixteen-year-old Lamb from Joplin earned the BMX park victory at Autumn Ramp Park after executing technical flairs and transfers, as well as a Superman seat grab during his winning run. Corey Morgan was second and John Pattreal finished in third place. “I’m super excited for the Finals!” Lamb said. “I better get ready, they’re really soon.”

“The contests went great this weekend,” Autumn Ramp Park owner Jeremiah Anderson said. “We’re really glad to have Gatorade promoting the Tour this year and giving these kids a great opportunity.”

With the win, Lamb earns an automatic bid into the Gatorade Free Flow Tour Finals that will take place at the Dew Tour’s Toyota Challenge, September 17-20, 2009.
