Piel is trying to get Johnny Z 
to team up with her for one of those places on the U.S. World team. That way I can go to the Olympics, see Italy, and see Johnny Z.. Silvia has already seen Italy so she can stay home 
.If it doesn't work out with JZ I can always skip over to Monaco and check out Albert.:agree:

That's great news! I was such a fan of Jamie's when she used to skate with Justin Pekarek. It will be great to see her back.
Has anyone heard anything about Tiffany Stiegler and Sergei Magarovsky? Will they continue to skate together? I think they are an amazingly promising team.

Anyone know what Jamie has been doing the past few years? Has she still been practicing/on the ice? Was she sick? I really loved her skating and I know her and Justin broke up long ago. I remember seeing something on TV about her several years back and IIRC she was talking about coming back to competitive skating.
I love Tiffany as well! Why did Sergei and his wife decide not to skate together anymore?

For teams below Senior, keep your eye on these two teams:
Emily Samuelson & Evan Bates - 2005 Novice National Champs. I believe that they have moved up to junior. (See http://www.usfigureskating.org/AthletePairBio.asp?id=24973)
Maddie & Kieffer Hubbel - They just won the Estonia International Dance competition. (See http://www.usfigureskating.org/Events.asp)
Both teams are fun to watch (and nice kids!)

Sylvia - What has happened with Kendra Goodwin? She could easily win the Miss America contest before going on to Skate America.

Jamie Silverstein has been at college the past few years (Cornell University).
Justin Pekarek retired from competitive skating after 2004 Nationals -- see: http://www.usfigureskating.org/Story.asp?id=24546
He is attending college and coaching in the Boston area.
I assume Kendra Goodwin is looking for a new partner for 2005-06?
