Brown rolls to victory at ’95’

HERMON – Fred Brown of Winterport made up for lost time and won Saturday night’s Linnehan Credit Now Auto 50-lap Coca-Cola limited sportsman feature race at Speedway 95 after being absent for a few weeks.

Duane Seekins of Stockton Springs was working his way to the front, but lost control coming into the front stretch and spun out. He was able to get back under way and avoid a caution, but had to head to the pits.

Brown took the lead from Dave St. Clair of Liberty, who finished second. The rest of the top five: Brenton Parritt of Steuben in third, St. Albans’ Greg Morse in fourth, and Bangor’s Josh Higgins fifth.
