They currently have 93+ while PCS is being finalized. They're going to be bronze. because 70+93 won't get them over Carreira/Ponomarenko.
Ouch.

I was mesmerised by the Parsons and ready to give them all the golds, but then 2015-2016 Lorraine and Quinn showed up and I thought that's it they have to win. And then the random fall.
Well, at least this makes it absolutely clear. If they hadn't had the fall and had won, I think a lot of people would have been very unhappy.

That's okay. I'm sure McNamara/Carpenter will redeem themselves at junior worlds!

This is karma telling Lorraine and Quinn they should have moved up to seniors... and I say this as their biggest fan
Well the good news is that they will next year.

Parsons!!!:hap57:
Let me go find videos so I can relish their victory.
If you find it, post the links please!
I'm curious why so many think that McNamara and Carpenter should have moved up this year to seniors. I get it that they won the National and World Junior titles, so what's left, but with the senior field currently so deep I think it makes some sense to "lay low" at the junior level and then enter seniors next year (from what I read one of the partners is aging out of juniors). Even though the field will still be deep next year, it gives them time to be still considered new and fresh and post-Olympics be prepared to step up into the top seniors. The fall today was really unfortunate especially during that high-point diagonal sequence. But even if the fall had not happened, I don't think they would have beaten the Parsons. The Parsons FD was so unique and engaging that I think the gold rightly belongs to them.
