Andrew and synchro skater Stephen Russell had a IG Live chat as part of the "IceMen" series:
Not a lot of specific content, but encouragement for young male skaters. ...
Stephen Murray is the name of the synchro skater from the Haydenettes who was the other half of the Icemen chat with Andrew.
It was wonderful how their chat really epitomized what the Icemen program is all about: With Andrew and Stephen having never met before (not even virtually) and being from different disciplines, it was great to see how easily they "clicked" and how interested they were to listen to each other and to talk to each other. Their mutual support and respect seemed to come very naturally to them -- because they have a love for the sport in common.
I am grateful to whoever at USFS paired these two personable Icemen ambassadors to chat together.
I was motivated to watch because I always enjoy hearing from Andrew. And to my pleasant surprise, I found Stephen's passion for synchro to be thoroughly compelling. Great job all around.
