Other musings based on the athletes' list:
--No Kovtun or Petrov on Men's team nor Reserve. Did either/both retire? Always happy to see Voronov still hanging in there. What happened to promising junior Skirda? Savosin should have aged out of juniors by now.
--Tuk is still on the Women's team. Glad to see Tsurskaya there, too. No Leonova anymore, feels like end of an era. Junior list is interesting--what happened to Tarakanova and who is Vasilyeva?
--Sinitsina/Katsalapov on the Reserve Team--well that's a downer for them, when the likes of Evdokimova/Bazin have been promoted above them. Ouch. Shpilevaya/Smirnov on the Junior dance list--I thought they had aged out?
