And all three look sooooo happy!!

Geeze, it's lucky I got up early and decided to check in here because I honestly didn't expect the Ladies FS to start so soon. It seems like I just posted on the Mens FS not too long ago, just last night in fact! And now this, lol.
Anyhow, nice to see the American Ladies did just as well as the American Men did last night. The men were 4-5-7, and now the women are 3-4-6. But most importantly both earned 3 spots for next year. Here's hoping the Seniors complete the same task at Worlds! ^)
Btw, I glanced at their Sps yesterday and imho Agnes Zawadzki is the only one that has gone through puberty completely. She looks out of place out there with the juniors. Here's hoping she's done with jrs. for good and can competes solely in the sr. division next year! *cheers*
I just realized that Adelina, not only won everything on the Jr circuit, but she won every single SP and LP! That's amazing.
No, she lost SP at Russian Nationals to Ksenia Makarova.
Liza has overall more content in her programs but based on this if both are clean Adelina will probably win. If Adelina makes a mistake Liza definitely has a chance. Adelina will have to add more content and now she knows.
Just because Agnes doesn't have a little 14 yr old body, doesn't mean she's out of place in Jrs. She's only 16 for goodness sake.
Adelina's 3 jump combo is the 3S+2T+2Lo. But I guess for some reason she didn't do it here. She did it at Russian Nats.
At 16 yrs. old Oksana Baiul & Sarah Hughes were Olympic Champions. Yes, I know all about the rule changes, but my point is it's time to move on up to the elite division! :thumbsup:
She did well in Jrs., a silver & a bronze, even Oksana Baiul never earned a medal in Jrs. (lol that's because she never competed in that division). And Sarah Hughes can only boast of a silver at Jr. Worlds. So Agnes is in good company.
She'll fit in nicely in Seniors. She already looks like a senior skater, a lady, now she just needs the right programs! Lol in fact if I didn't know any better I would've thought she came from Texas, where they grow them tall & long-legged.
And not to forget Christina Gao, she too impresses me, has since I saw her & Agnes skate at US Nationals in January. Time for her too to compete solely in Srs. imho.
These two are the future faces of American Ladies Skating imho ~ Audrey Hepburn & Jerry Hall ~ with Gidget, Alyssa Milano, and Sunshine completing the quintet!
I watched the jrgpf final and she didn't do it there either. I wonder why she's taken it out.
