Lockwood and Roberts Move to Cat 4 / CollegiateB


- Macon, GA -

After a busy spring season of racing, two of the cornerstones of Mercer Cycling's young team, Andrew Lockwood and Kevin Roberts have moved up to Category 4 / Collegiate B for the continuation of the 2010 season.

Lockwood moves up a category despite winning a race early in the season with consistent finshes at the top of the pack. In criteriums and road races this season, he has four Top-5s, seven Top-10s, and three team time-trial victories alongside Roberts. He also finished runner-up to Roberts in the early Tundra Time Trials held in February.

Roberts, fresh off a victory at the Cat 5 race in the Macon Cycling Classic, boasts a strong resume during his first full season of racing. Known as a strong time-trialist and climber, Roberts won the collegiate division in this year's Tundra Time Trials and has helped propel the three team trials he's been a part of to victories [Georgia Southern, Georgia Tech, Furman]. Along with his criterium win, Roberts adds three Top-5s and six Top-10s to his resume so far in 2010.
