BMX trials
Santa Clarita's Mike Day and Bubba Harris, formerly of Lancaster who now calls Goodyear, Ariz., home will be two of eight BMX riders competing for one spot on the USA Olympic team at the Olympic Training Center in Chula Vista on Saturday.
Day is the No. 3 rider in the Team USA Cycling BMX rankings. Harris, who broke his ankle during a trial run on the Beijing course last year, received a special invitation to compete for a spot on the team in trials.
Steven Cisar of Altadena and Danny Calaug of Chino are also part of the eight-man field in the trials.
Kyle Bennett of Conroe, Texas, has already earned a spot on the Olympic team as the top rider in the Team USA Cycling BMX rankings.
A third rider will be chosen by the coaches. That spot is expected to go to Donny Robinson of Napa if he doesn't win the trials.
