What happened to...?

[Pikachuusb]

Looking for a pair's partner, apparently.

seriously?! I thought he wasn't competing due to injury. Wow....I wish him the best of luck if that's what he want to go to. I've hoped for him to excel since he was on the jr circuit.

I think he could be a good partner for Kiri Baga if she had any interest in doing pairs, she's only 5 ft I think. I think she could go a lot farther in pairs than singles, too.

He could probably lift Yasmin Siraj, she's soo tiny! But she's doing really well in singles so it might be smarter for her to stay put.

Ha! True. She's 13 though. Or is it 14? I expect she won't be that tiny for that long.

She's 14. She'll likely grow more, but if she is that small at 14, I doubt she's ever going to be very big. Stephen should be able to find a partner, it might just mean he ends up with someone a lot younger.

Stephen is listed on icepartnersearch: http://www.icepartnersearch.com/showbio.php?i=3510

I wish him luck!

I just came across this thread and thought I would provide answers about these skaters:

Stephen Carriere: Last I heard he is no longer considering skating pairs and has gone back to singles. He performed a solo exhibition in the Skating Club of Boston's "Ice Chips" shows this weekend.

Carolyn Ann Alba: She returned to Southern California and singles skating (coached Tammy Gambill), competed in Senior Ladies and placed 5th at Pacific Coast Sectionals (1st alternate to Nationals) in November 2010.

Bebe Liang: She is coaching in El Segundo, California (I assume she is also in college?) and will be skating a duet with Braden Overett today at the "Skaters Care" benefit show in Ontario, Calif.

Laney Diggs: She is a full-time undergraduate at UC Berkeley in California and competed in Senior Ladies in the U.S. Intercollegiate Team Championships last month.

Kimmie Meissner: She is scheduled to perform in "Skate for Love," a one-night-only cancer benefit show at Mennen Sports Arena in Morristown, New Jersey, on April 16 at 7:00 p.m. along with Emily Hughes and Nicole Bobek. Event site: http://www.skateforlove.org/

Eliot Halverson: His last Nationals appearance was in 2009 (13th in Senior Men) followed that fall by the 2009 JGP in Belarus (5th place). He has been injured (back?) for the past 2 seasons and unable to compete at Regionals/Sectionals.

Thanks for the info.

Do you know who won?

Nicole Bobek. Event site: http://www.skateforlove.org/

I wonder if she gets credit for community service for charity appearances like this?

Do you know who won?

The top 3 teams were University of Delaware, Dartmouth College and Boston University. You can view both team and individual results for the 2011 U.S. Intercollegiate Team Championships, held in Ann Arbor, Michigan, March 19-20, here: http://www.usfsa.org/event_details.asp?id=44951

I spotted Bebe Liang in an advertisement in the current issue of Skating magazine for the 2011 "Summer of Excellence" training camp from June 13-July 29, 2011. She is included as part of the staff, along with Tiffany Chin, Ken Congemi, Christa Fassi.
