Morgan Rochelle is Miss. USAC East Coast 2018
By: Jenna Shotz
Morgan Rochelle has been named as Miss. USAC East Coast 2018!
Does the name “Rochelle” ring a bell? Morgan’s bloodline is a racing on both sides. You may have already guessed it, but her late Grandfather, Paul “Sandy” Rochelle was a United Racing Club Champion and popular modified driver in Pennsylvania many years ago. Her maternal grandfather, Ronnie Dunstan raced anything with four wheels and a motor, including silver crown. Her father is also a decorated driver in this area, and her little brother Ryan is also learning the ropes in quarter midgets.
However, most notable of all, Morgan straps herself into a five-point harness every weekend as well. Rochelle gets behind the wheel of her 270 Micro Sprint each weekend at the Linda’s Speedway and other tracks in the area. “My life has always been centered around racing, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
Morgan is in college for Nursing, works at a daycare, maintains her own racing equipment, and somehow makes time to also be a BeachBody Coach.
Morgan explains how excited she is to be able to represent a great new series, “I’m super excited about this opportunity to be Miss. USAC-EC and meet new people and get to see lots of awesome racing!”
