[EWalker]

Due to back injury. No further information available.

Poor Angela, I was really looking forward to her spunkiness this week. Let's hope she comes back strong next year.

[yangjie]

so sad. I wonder when she can go to the junior world...

[n_halifax]

How unfortunate. She is a really exciting young rising star and she very well could have contended for a top ten finish in Spokane. Let's hope she has a speedy recovery.

[Tonichelle]

bummer! :( hope this is something that won't continue to plague her and become a career ender.

[Spun Silver]

Too bad! Such a talented, unique young skater! I hope she recovers soon, and fully.

[oleada]

Nooo, she's one of my favorite skaters :(
I hope she can recover fully.

[R.D.]

Wow, hope this is not the first of a last minute batch of WDs..

[iluvtodd]

Oh, that's a real shame. She's a bubbly young lady on the ice (saw her at the Liberty Summer Competition and at Mike Weiss' show last year). I hope this will not be a career ending injury. A full, speedy recovery to Angela!

Wishing Angela a speedy recovery. I alway look forward to her performances at Nationals.

[Joesitz]

It's always sad when this happens just before Nationals, and unfortunately, it is not unusual.

So sad, I was hoping she'd be an upset and finish ahead of some of the top ladies. Hope she gets better soon!

Now the only potential spoilers left are Christina, Alexe, Bebe, and Emily, and I tend to doubt they will rise to the occasion. But you never know

[Vlad]

Poor girll!Eh,unfortunately figure skating it's also a sport with injures.She's very good skater and i'll miss her.

[iceminx]

That's not good news...*sad*
I hope she is well enough for the GP next season...
