Jalek Swoll Shines in Comeback at AMA SuperMotocross Championship!

Belleview, USA - As the sound of roaring engines filled the air at the High Point track, Jalek Swoll made a significant return to the racing scene on June 16, 2025. Having been sidelined by an Achilles tendon injury during the pre-season, Swoll’s debut at the fourth round of the AMA Pro Motocross Championship and round 21 of the SuperMotocross World Championship marked a promising comeback for the young racer. He missed all of Monster Energy AMA Supercross and the early Pro Motocross rounds, making his appearance a moment to celebrate.

After what seemed like an eternity away from the track, Swoll’s first race back saw him finish 14th in his opening moto—quite an accomplishment considering the physical and mental hurdles he had to overcome. The local boy then impressed his fans by improving to 8th place in the second moto, rounding out the day with a solid 10th overall finish. Swoll noted, “I’m happy with how things have gone today,” despite acknowledging that his fitness level was still being developed. “I experienced pain in my foot during the first moto but was pleased to keep pace in the second,” he remarked in a post-race statement.

Triumph’s Entry into the Championship

Swoll’s return is also noteworthy due to Triumph Racing’s historic debut alongside him in the same event. Triumph joined the ranks of significant manufacturers in the Monster Energy AMA Supercross Championship, aspiring to carve its niche in a sport traditionally dominated by brands like Kawasaki and Honda. Pay attention, as Triumph is now the eighth Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) to partner with the series, which promises to bring new dynamics to the championship landscape.

The Supercross Media Day in Detroit marked a pivotal moment for the racing brand, showcasing the new Triumph TF 250-X and featuring athletes like Swoll and Evan Ferry. Triumph is set to significantly increase its visibility through collaboration with Feld Motor Sports, Inc. This partnership includes hospitality programs, branding opportunities, and a solid presence in television and digital marketing campaigns throughout the 31-round SuperMotocross World Championship.

The Road Ahead

Looking ahead, Swoll is preparing for his next challenge at the Southwick National in Massachusetts on June 28. As the highest finishing Triumph rider at High Point, he leads teammates Mikkel Haarup, who finished 12th, Jordon Smith at 14th, and Austin Forkner in 22nd. The competition grows fiercer as he will face off against prominent riders such as defending SMX 250 World Champion Haiden Deegan, along with veterans including Austin Forkner and Jeremy Martin.

The AMA Supercross Championship, which has evolved dramatically since its inception in 1974, continues to be the premier platform for motocross racing in the United States. Recently restructured into the SuperMotocross World Championship, this series blends the excitement of Supercross held in indoor stadiums with the outdoor elements of motocross events across the country. With thrilling races held from January until early May and an expanding presence in the digital landscape, the championship remains a highly anticipated spectacle for fans everywhere.

As the excitement builds around the SuperMotocross World Championship, devoted fans and newcomers alike can look forward to what Swoll, Triumph, and their competitors will bring to the track. Stay tuned as the race season heats up!
