Recapping the U.S. and Canadian Nationals

We can all take a deep, collective sigh – the whirlwind of the U.S. and Canadian figure skating nationals have concluded! We saw some great performances from both our U.S. and Canadian skaters and a round of applause for everyone is certainly in order.

Rewind the clocks back to last week’s post where we highlighted the majority of our Canadian skaters and their performances. Since the action of both nationals has come to a close, we’d like to take the time to acknowledge our awesome American and Canadian skaters:
