2023 U.S. Midwestern Sectionals & Pairs Final

Bad

I’m trying to make a point. What is different about Fanzine music and Peacock music? I guess because Fanzone didn’t get sued?
Probably. Then Peacock can't show replays, but of course they won't allow Fanzone to do it because NBC has "exclusive broadcast rights"? It's silly. At least leave it up for an hour or two afterward!
 
This is just speculation from me but I think it is because anyone who has Peacock Premium can watch skating so the audience is much wider and there is more liability on Peacock if the music has not been licensed correctly. For novice and below events - which definitely have music on demand - the audience is much more involved in FS and there is less liability for Peacock. If someone reported a music copywrite issue maybe the liability would be on USFS because it is on the Fanzone platform. But, I am not an attorney :unsure:
 
Wednesday at 7:50 a.m. ET Mids starts the day with Novice Pairs SP on Fanzone with a lot of other events following. The first thing on Peacock for Mids is Junior Pairs FS at 8:30 p.m. ET.

Eastern Sectionals starts Wednesday morning on Peacock at 9:20 a.m. ET with Jr. RD.
I missed Junior Pairs? 🥲🥲🥲
 
Cayla Smith (of jr pairs team Smith/Deng) finished 3rd in intermediate women. My favorite was the 2nd place finisher Madison Xaphakdy...smooth skating and actual jumps (not just little spinny things in the air).

I’m taking notes for later.
 
Joanna, Jolena, and Jessica skating in a row in Novice Women. I'm easily amused. Side note that there are quite a few pairs girls in this division.
 
Jessi Jurka was great! I love her! My heart breaks for Jiang - seeing her so upset about her performance... she's someone I've always liked. Just wasn't her day :(

On a positive note, looks like Olivia Flores will join Jessi at Nationals as top two novice per section get to move up to junior for Nationals. She will also be in junior pairs (all junior pairs here qualify for Nationals). And her sister Isabella will try to qualify in senior dance over in Easterns!

Olivia seems to have a fun personality. I enjoyed her skate. So sad for those last two skaters. I think is impossible to dislike Jessi. I'm a fan.
 
Oh. No they did so well on the SBS jumps and then the lift just did not go up.
