“It was great,” said McNamara. “I mean I think it went exactly the way we wanted, two strong, clean skates. I think it’s a good debut for us.
One of the main goals of the 2016 World Junior champions at this event was to show that they can be compared to the top senior teams.
“Everybody already says the transition to senior, of course, is the biggest step you can make,” said said McNamara, but you never know just how different this (is) until you are there in senior. And I think just every competition we learned more and more.”
Her partner agreed: “(It was) great experience, and (we could feel) great energy from the crowd,” said Carpenter. “Yesterday we talked about showing the difference between short dance and free (dance) on our first day, and it has been a great experience.”
