It was nice to see Kirk and Aleksandr come back stronger today. Lucius and Jared were good too and it was nice to see them all happy.

I also thoroughly enjoyed watching intermediate champion Madison Chong and novice champion Caleb Farrington today!
Oh….you’re a better person than I am. I’m trying to slog my way through senior women’s LP

I needed to google and found the advancement criteria. Does it mean we need to wait for the confirmed list of qualified skaters until rest of the sectionals/internation competitions are held:

It used to be 4. This is ridiculous.

What about Juniors?
Yup. I knew it was two and then the best scores as last year I was holding my breathe for Sonja Hilmer to make it to Nationals with one of the next best scores. I don’t think Ting Cui will make it as 150+ scores were the cutoff last year.

For Juniors, Mia Kalin was eliminated because she wasn’t in the top 4. I think it is top 4 for each section and then top 2 from Novice from each section. That totals 18 spots.

I couldn’t remember. I was just happy Gracie was there. It’s a shame if Ting doesn’t make it.

I hope Sophie Jolene von Felton makes it Nationals. She finish 3rd with a 154. I don't remember the rest. It would be disappointing if she didn't make it along with a few others on the bubble (cut off) and than we don't see them next year for whatever reason.

They show promise.
I guess that competition.

Are there two Sophie von Feltons, or was she skating for Switzerland last year (JGP and silver in Swiss nationals)?
