Medal Oriented

[Zanzibar]

Alexander Abt - 2002 World Championships Nagano - if it had been held anywhere but Japan he would have had bronze, and Takeshi Honda would have been 4th.

As it turned out Sasha (Alexander) landed in 4th....and it will bother me for the rest of my life, LOL! (seriously.....) that one of the sport's greatest skaters never got a World medal.

I couldn't agree with you more about that decision.

You know how they say one of the signs of getting old is you can remember the distant past better than the recent one? It appears to be happening to me, because I can't remember this from the last 6 Nationals at all (including the one we just had two months ago), tho I do know Amber Corwin was in there someplace, I'm thinking 2003.

I've attended the past 6 Nationals, so from memory...
2001: Jennifer Kirk
2002: Angela Nikodinov
2003: Ann Patrice McDonough
2004: Amber Corwin
2005: Jennifer Kirk
2006: Katy Taylor

P.S. All 4th place finishers receive a pewter medal at US Nationals.
