Congratulations to Anastasia and Luke on their first GP assignment: 2022 MK John Wilson Trophy.
Here's a Fan Fest thread for them! Good luck to the team for the upcoming season!

They did an excellent job at ACI23, especially in the Free where they were fourth (fifth overall).

Looks like they've been assigned to Skate America!


Replacing Miura and Kihara who have withdrawn due to an injury.

Back in October I posted the following comments in the British Irish figure skating thread. I did not think at the time that there might be a fan fest thread for Ana and Luke. I am copying the post here because it fits in a fan fest.

My dog Willow got me introduced to the British Pairs Skaters at Skate America. I was walking outside the arena waiting for my relatives to finish watching the medal ceremonies when a nice man (later identified as Jason their coach) beckoned us over to meet Willow. He introduced Ana as a British Pairs skater and I told him how great it was to meet them. I said that I was the fan that held up the British flag when they finished their skate and that I had that flag in honor of my late wife who was from Malvern near Worcester. Jason then introduce me to Luke and then said this is Jenna. My comment "Jenna McCorkell?" was greeted with a nod and I said that I remembered her well as well as her husband Kevin and I had brought a Belgian flag with me as well. We had a nice long conversation and then Jason said they were all headed out to get a pint.

During the whole conversation, Ana was kneeling down on eye level stroking and talking to Willow . I was extremely impressed with how sweet Ana was and will be a dedicated fan of hers for life.

I apologize if I have the wrong short name for Anastasia but I think Ana was what Jason used when he introduced her. They were such a nice group of people and made it a very pleasant and happy way to end the evening.
