Nathan has won his second consecutive USOC monthly award, this time for January: http://www.teamusa.org/News/2017/Fe...y-Honors-For-Team-USA-Awards-Presented-By-Dow

ETA that, not surprisingly, he was featured prominently yesterday in NBC Olympics' 1 Year to PyeongChang promos on their FB page (I counted 5 different FB photos), like this one yesterday in a group with Olympic gold medalists Shaun White, Mikaela Shiffrin & Lindsey Vonn): https://www.facebook.com/nbcolympic...18682000328/10155715458895329/?type=3&theaterIn addition to winning his first U.S. title, 17-year-old Chen made history at the 2017 U.S. Figure Skating Championships, becoming the first man in figure skating history to land five quadruple jumps in a single performance. His free skate, set to "The Polovtsian Dances" by Alexander Borodin, included a quad Lutz-triple toe combination, a quad flip, a quad Salchow and two quad toe loops, including one in a series with a double-toe-double loop. His personal-best scores marked new U.S. records across the board, breaking the previous top overall score by more than 43 points. He earned 212.08 for his free skate and finished the week with 318.47 points. This is Chen’s second consecutive Team USA Awards Best of the Month win during the 2016-17 cycle.
