2015 US Nationals – Hyannis, MA
Junior Team finished second overall performing – Social Media Takes Over the World. Computer-mediated tools create, share, or exchange information, ideas, and pictures in virtual communications and networks. In one year, time spent on social media increased by 99%! Is this real socializing? Social Media provides more breadth, but not the depth of relationships we humans require.
2014 US Nationals – Dearborn, MI
The Junior team, lying in second place after the CE, were excited to take to the ice and present their "Indiana Jones and the Ice Temple of Doom" original Free-skate routine. Against intense competition, they finished in fourth position, but this result, combined with last year's third place, holds us in strong contention for the World Theatre on Ice team next April. USFS will announce the chosen teams at the end of July!
2013 US Nationals – Troy, OH
After an excellent finish of first place in the first part of the choreographic exercise competition, the newly formed Junior team had a lot of pressure. They performed their Hollywood Legends free skate up against the tough competition and were just one judge away from winning the entire event. The placement ordinals were so tight that we finished third but still in good stead to qualify for Nations Cup 2015. Welcome back to the podium, Junior team. Out of thirteen teams, this was not an easy task!
