I can post a separate thread for the Junior & Novice rosters in the future.

Thanks Sylvia! I'll be looking for those Junior and Novice lists. I like to know who to make posters for.

Thanks Sylvia - I just wish there was some way that we can see ALL the skaters in the US Nationals. Why couldn't there be an obscure cable station in everyone's home town and show the all the competitions - one on each night at 3:00 am so that we could tape it and watch at our convenience?

practice groups

Thanks Sylvia, Have you seen the practice groups posted yet? sk8addict

Go Stephanie Roth! Go Jordan and Barrett!

Thank you Sylvia.

It's so nice to see the Naomi Nari Nam on a competitors list once again. I'm hoping that she and Themi skate well enough to make the SP broadcast. The same with Miller & Brubaker; I've read about them on the message boards and in BOI's U.S. Nationals articles.

After seeing Naomi & her partner at sectionals, I'm hoping they make the podium at Nationals!

Can a moderator revise this topic title/subject header to "US Nationals senior, junior & novice rosters"?

Novice, Junior & Senior practice groups are linked from the USFS event page:
http://www.usfigureskating.org/event_details.asp?id=20430

Who are people in the know picking for the upsets?

Silverstein/O'Meara
Nam and Partner
Kahle

By upsets I mean going top 5-6 because other I think even with COP there's still a pecking order (although it looks like Pairs will be the hardest place to deny a great performance.)

This US Nationals is for these skaters the same as an Olympics. I don't mean the top tier skaters although they too, want that title of National Champion. But the 2nd tier and below skaters really want this too. I think they put a lot of pressure on themselves.

I hope that ALL the competitors skate their best and understand the why of their placements.

Wester/Barantsev have a shot.

Let's cut to the quick: Top three possibilities in dance, among Olympic-eligible teams, most likely finishing in this order:

1.Gregory/Petukhov
2. Silverstein/O'Meara
3. Galler-Rabinowitz/Mitchell

Right? Are Pratt/Gilles good enough to challenge G-R/M for an Oly berth? Please - pretty please. Nice things should happen to only nice people. :thumbsup:

Anybody know if there is a link to the USFSA website with the info that Sylvia posted and what their hometowns/SCs are? I want to be sure to root for all the Florida and Alabama people. Crazy, I know.

In the past the USFS site has posted individual US National skater bios for each skater/team, but no such links are up on their event page yet.

Here's the link to a local Florida article on the 3 Ellenton-based pairs going to Nationals -- seniors Amanda Evora/Mark Ladwig & Shantel Jordan/Jeremy Barrett and the novice team of Tracy Tanovich (age 9)/Michael Chau (age 15):
http://www.bradenton.com/mld/bradenton/living/13475819.htm

Ashley Deavers (of the Junior dance team of Clare Farrell/Ashley Deavers) is from Birmingham, Alabama.

Can a GS moderator, for the sake of accuracy , please revise this topic title/subject header to "US Nationals senior, junior & novice rosters"? Thanks.

Yup, I knew about Ashley and we'll be going to the Junior Dance comps and rooting for him and Clare. Go B'ham! I didn't know about Evora and Ladwig and Tanovich and Chau though.

Thanks a bunch Sylvia. You're a big help.:agree:
