If I didn't have to be in lab today, I'd come watch. I'm less than 2 miles from the rink.

Taylor Morris just threw it down in intermediate ladies! 2 clean beauuuutiful double axels and clean everything else. She was really enjoying herself out there. 61 points and 94 overall. Pooja was my second favorite and placed 3rd overall I believe. She had very good flow out of all her jumps and gorgeous spins she received some +2's on. Julia budnick who was second skated to phantom (part of akiko's cut!) and was kind of boring but had two small 2A's and the rest of her jumps were pretty tiny too, but she was a tall girl. Pretty black dress with lots of silver rhinestones.

Short program practice reports for today- I'll keep editing this post as practices go on
Morgan flood and amber Glenn were popping off triple triples...Morgan a 3T+3T and amber 3F+3T. Selena zhao fell quite a bit but added a triple toe on the couple triple lutzes she did land. Caitlin nemastil is skating to Christmas music...
Watching senior ladies. Mariah bell had a nice run through. Solid jumps.
Ashley Cain is looking super confident. Very solid jumps, great spins, clean program.
Barbie long has improved leaps and bounds over the past couple years, I am so impressed. She'svery graceful in her short and very light on her feet. Missed the double axel but went back and did it after the program and it was fine.
Hannah had a strong dynamic program. Lutzes looked borderline cheated but I think the judges would have given them to her. They were clean by the end though. Everything else was strong and fast.
There were quite a few girls struggling with triple sals...Lexis verhulst, morgan bell, and carly gold was too a little bit.
This is going to be a really tough group. But I really think that if Ashley, mariah, Barbie, and hannah skate well they will be the top 4.

Intermediate is the level below Novice in the U.S. But being Novice in the U.S. is based on passing a certain test while ISU Novice is age-based.

Anyone watching junior men? Or anything since novice ladies? I'm the ice monitor! And no I'm not gonna wave 
If you missed it novice ladies wasn't anything to jump up and down about. Lots of falls and mistakes. Novice pairs was pretty good, top 3 teams were very good.
And yes congrats to Madeline and Max! Beautiful skate!

Junior ladies short:
Amber missed her 3F+3T. Everything else was great. Her speed and jumps remind me of Gracie. And i think she looks like her too. 55.58.
53.41 for ashley shin. Triple flip triple toe, popped the loop into a double, double axel. Nice rest of the problem but looked nervous.
Morgan flood had a bad skate...37.63. Landed 3t+2t with arms above her head, fall on 3lo, scary fall on 2a.
Selena zhao step out on 3lz, popped the loop and fell on the axel I believe. 38.75
Elena taylor I really liked...she was very expressive and graceful.she's coached by ashley cains parents. 2lo, 2a, 3t+2t. Not sure if the 2lo was intended to be a triple but she ended up in third close behind ashley with 52.99.
Nobody skated clean...a sad event

We got the final group of Senior Ladies at Midwesterns featuring Mariah Bell, Ashley Cain, Hannah Miller and Barbie Long. There is a 12-point gap between the top 4 and the 5th place gal.
The ladies got a very nice supportive message from Jason Brown:

@icegirlash @MariahSk8rBell @barbie__long @Hannah_Miller1 Congrats
Mariah Bell had a few issues with her skate, she ran out of ice with her 3-jump combo and had two falls later in the program. But I really like this FS for her. She never gave up on skating the choreo.
97.32, 154.91 total, gets the last spot for Nationals by placing 4th.

Hannah Miller did a mostly clean FS just a turnout in the 3F later in the program. Home crowd showered her with gifts.
Great choreo, well-skated.
115.28 (!) and obviously in first.
Good for Hannah. Glad she is back skating strong. She is one of my favorites.
I am sure that Polish Figure Skating Association is waiting with open arms. ^^
