Well, we are back to bigger fields for the young dancers (juveniles, intermediates, and novices). I suppose that is a plus, at least. They don't get to attend Nationals, but more teams get to compete against each other.

How does the qualification for Nationals work with the junior dance teams now? Is it the top 12 here make it + any qualifier(s) for the JGPF? (Or are the top novice dancers from this invited to join the junior field too? Or some other twist that I've forgotten?)

There are no senior men listed for Mids. Is it because there were four or fewer and they elected not to compete? I was hoping to see Jordan Moeller and Emmanuel Savary there.

haribobo · Nov 10, 2019

I noticed they have an hour or so for the men FS on the schedule (SP is also there), so I think they didn't list them on the practice groups because there is only 1 group maybe?

Debbie S · Nov 10, 2019

Reynolds not on Senior Dance roster...so do teams have the option of not competing at the Final if there are 4 or fewer at their level? Or less than 12 nationally registered for the qual season?

MacMadame · Nov 12, 2019

What are people's recommendations for "can't miss" events at Sectionals? I noticed that NBC Sports Gold is streaming the qualifying comps but there are too many watch them all what with a GP also taking place this weekend.

I'm sure everyone has their favorites and I'd love to hear about them.

I am going to watch the novice ice dance final on US Figure Skating Fan Zone. Probably this will not be everyone's priority

For today, MIDS Novice Ladies SP should be a very competitive event (for example, Elsa Cheng has been assigned to her first international, the junior event at Golden Spin of Zagreb in December, to get her TES minimums so she can be considered for Junior Worlds).

There is a new rule this year: top 2 finishers in singles at the Novice level at each of the 3 Sectionals will qualify to skate Junior for Nationals. MIDS Novice Men features 2 JGP competitors, Joseph Klein (one of my faves to watch) and Daniel Martynov, and we shall see whether or not both will advance as expected.

Just checked and Jessica, who was 8th at the Lake Placid JGP, is listed in the MIDS Junior Ladies SP starting order again!

This event is on Friday and includes 2 other JGP ladies - Isabelle Inthisone (had 2nd highest total score on JGP of the U.S. ladies behind Alysa Liu) and Calista Choi - both of whom train with Bradie Tennell: https://www.usfigureskating.org/leaderboard/results/2020/27742/CAT007SEG011.html

Easterns Intermediate Ladies SP results just got updated.

Rukia · Nov 13, 2019

Mids scoring has been working. Happy for Ian Kirk. His whole goal was to just make it to sectionals, so 2nd place in the short is a great place to be.

vesperholly · Nov 13, 2019

I watched a little bit of Intermediate Ladies at Easterns. Lotus Shen (1st) was very calm, smooth and jumps clean as a whistle. Ava Ziegler (2nd) has HUGE jumps, landed 3lutz and fell on a rotated 3flip. Missed most of the rest. Nice job ladies :cheer2:

sk8nlizard · Nov 13, 2019

Why Is it telling me it doesn’t support my device for Novice Ladies at MIDS? I watched other stuff earlier and the Intermediate dance from Easterns is playing?
NM it started working

3Lz3T (rot.?), 3F with flow out, 2A... 51.29! She sat with Denise Myers (Bradie's coach) and Tommy Steenberg, her choreographer, I assume.

Audrey Meredith, also with Myers' group, is one to watch in group 2.

I didn't even think to look for her. I can't wait to watch her skate again!

wickedwitch · Nov 13, 2019

FYI: apparently it's now Academy at Mitchell Johansson Method. Between them and Gadbois, do skating coaches think they're skaters will get higher marks if their group is an academy as opposed to a normal club?

I think USFS required them to add the "Academy" part to be an official club. I'm not sure exactly why, but that's what I heard.

MacMadame · Nov 14, 2019

I thought the club was always Academy at MJM
