Glacier Falls is in Anaheim, CA-perhaps you should schedule time to stop by for the Senior Men's events :)

seriously?! ugh! I don't think I'd be able to swing it. I get in on the 4th around 7pm... the 5th is the first day of Disney and I don't see the six year old letting me off the hook.... (the 6 year old inside me or the 6 year old neice lol)

Welcome to Golden Skate used2skate. Post long & often.

Yes, I did not spend as much time checking out the ladies' coaches as the men's, since I am not a big fan of the discipline.

Sylvia lists the following ladies' entrants that I missed:

Mirai Nagasu, Courtney Hicks, Vanessa Lam, and Morgan Bell.

Junior ladies include Mariah Bell, Polina Edmunds, Gwendolyn Prescott [/B Karen Chen, Amber Glenn, Amanda Gelb -- along with Selena Zhao, Avery Kurtz, Katia Shpilband.

Either the LP or SP is likely to be in the evening for seniors, if this comp is like Liberty-perhaps your hotel or Disney has a baby sitter?
Or Perhaps your niece would like to root for an Alaskan skating star, too?

The schedule is supposed to be up at www.glacierfalls.com but the server was just down.

I couldn't figure out their site yesterday, they wanted a log in and password... so weird...

I'll have to see where they are in relation to our hotel/disney... IF they have a late night on Saturday I can go do that...

As far as I know, the event schedule and full roster aren't available online yet, but I can post when they are.

I'll just re-post what I posted in the Glacier Falls competition thread at FSU...

The Senior Men's event will include the 4th-15th place finishers in Senior men at 2012 US Nationals :cool: -- Mahbanoozadeh, Razzano, Carriere, Messing, Aaron, Brown, Dyer, Cassar, Hochstein, Dornbush, Mroz, Alex Johnson -- plus Philip Warren (Jr. bronze medalist), Emmanuel Savary, Sean Rabbitt, Andrew Gonzales, Canadians Jeremy Ten and junior champ Mitchell Gordon, and Chris Caluza (PHI).

Senior Ladies include Mirai Nagasu, Courtney Hicks, Vanessa Lam, and Morgan Bell.
(Like last year, Nagasu did "The Ice" tour in Japan and returned home to compete at Glacier Falls. She's listed for "The Ice" again this year (July 21-29) - thread in GSD: http://www.fsuniverse.net/forum/showthread.php?t=83626 )

Junior Ladies include Mariah Bell, Polina Edmunds, Gwendolyn Prescott (these 3 are in USFS' International Selection Pool), plus the U.S. Novice top 3 medalists -- Karen Chen, Amber Glenn, Amanda Gelb -- along with Selena Zhao, Avery Kurtz, Katia Shpilband.

Junior Men include the following ISP skaters -- Nathan Chen, Lukas Kaugars, Jay Yostanto, Spencer Howe, Shotaro Omori -- plus Vincent Zhou and Jordan Moeller.

P.S. to Doris -- Carolyn-Ann Alba (Senior Ladies) is returning to competition after a season off and the Karen Zhou in Novice is obviously not the Senior level Karen Zhou who has been a full-time student at the University of California-Irvine and has not competed since 2011 U.S. Collegiate Championships in Sun Valley where she won the bronze.

No, the Karen Zhou in Novice is the Novice Ladies' National Champion
Karen Chen and Vincent Zhou are the 2012 U.S. Novice champions. :) Both are competing Junior at Glacier Falls -- Zhou has not tested up yet while Chen already has tested up (according to their recent Golden Skate articles).

Plus there's the delicious irony of someone coming all the way down from AK—in the summer—to southern CA to find ice.

It sounds like a great competition.

I tried to post this earlier, but it was trash-canned I guess. My bad.

The Junior and Senior Ladies/Mens SP and FS will be on IceNetwork, video-on-demand, about 1 to 2 weeks after the competition. So, Toni, if you can't make it, you can watch it on IN.

But, it's always better in person!
