2023 U.S. Club & NQS Competitions

[TanithandBenFan]

This has been the weirdest skating-competition matrix ever - no schedule by day, per event. No timed schedule/separation by dates. No list of officials ahead of time. Will there be a special list for today? Guess not…just continue the one list:

Kowar/Schwappach – tentative in expression, nice assisted somersault lift. They looked a bit stronger in warm-up than when they competed.

It’s a pity as they’re well matched. He, particularly, seems to tense up when it counts.

Do USFS publish the standings for the solo dance series? There seem to be a lot of competitions involved.

Yes, but it's usually posted on EMS, so requires a member login to view.

Protocols are up. Flores/Desyatov's deduction was for an extended lift. Koncius/Shchepetov's was for a fall (which makes it pretty amazing that they moved up to medal!).

Lots of extended lift deductions. Where's Skary Babs and her stop watch when you need her?

 

[Wyliefan]

Juniors are under way, but they haven't got the total score page working yet. In the meantime, Epps/Gilman have the top scoring free dance so far, after 3 teams, with 67.94.

that's what a handy-dandy Excel spreadsheet is for, dearie!
Overall standings after the first group -

Epps/Gilman 111.16
Stapert/Korotcov 108.06
Cialella/Goldshteyn 97.90
Melillo/Mintz 87.77
Hagan/Hagan 71.10

 

[Wyliefan]

Many thanks to you and your spreadsheet!

 

[Wyliefan]

84.01 for Pedersen/Chen.

 

[Karen-W]

Missed watching the scores as they came up for the 2nd group because, well... work, lol. But, spreadsheet has been updated!

Pedersen/Chen 135.99
Calhoun/Veselukhin 125.20
Ilin/Cain 121.54
Cui/Eckert 115.49
Renzi/Lissauer 114.21
Epps/Gilman 111.16
Stapert/Korotcov 108.06
Cialella/Goldshteyn 97.90
Melillo/Mintz 87.77
Hagan/Hagan 71.10

 

[Karen-W]

79.92 for Lavrova/Rogers - they stay ahead of Pedersen/Chen overall with 137.79, but behind them in the FD.

 

[Karen-W]

Hauer/Starr 79.71 - eeek - 3rd in the FD with 3 teams left, but stay in the lead with 138.85 overall.

 

[Wyliefan]

N/M break a hundred in the free (100.78, to be precise!).

 

[Karen-W]

Woooeeeee - Neset/Markelov - 100.78 in the FD - total score is 168.00 - they're going to be one of the leading teams on the Junior circuit internationally this year, for sure!

 

[Karen-W]

Wow - Peals with 80.01 in the FD - Pedersen/Chen's score is really holding up well. Shame about the issues in the RD, otherwise they'd have easily made the podium here. Peals into 2nd with 141.99 overall.

 

[Karen-W]

And the Mullens push the Peals in to 3rd in the FD with a score of 80.82 - overall score is 135.00 for 6th, but probably good enough to get back on the ISP and nab at least one JGP assignment!

Neset/Markelov 168.00
Peal/Peal 141.99
Hauer/Starr 138.85
Lavrova/Rogers 137.79
Pedersen/Chen 135.99
Mullen/Mullen 135.00
Calhoun/Veselukhin 125.20
Ilin/Cain 121.54
Cui/Eckert 115.49
Renzi/Lissauer 114.21
Epps/Gilman 111.16
Stapert/Korotcov 108.06
Cialella/Goldshteyn 97.90
Melillo/Mintz 87.77
Hagan/Hagan 71.10

 

[Dobre]

And there you have it. We're off to the races. Pedersen & Chen are 2nd in the FD. The Mullens squeak out 3rd there over the Peals who finish 2 spots above Hauer & Starr. And, of course, the overall results are all different .

Who the blank knows how things will play out this season, but it was a fun start & we didn't even get to watch it!

 

[Wyliefan]

The top 4 all finished in rhythm dance order (they were 1, 4, 6, 5 in the free)!

 

[Frau Muller]

Quite a great return to competition by last year’s “Missing Dude” Tsarevski! Seems like a great partner for Wolfkostin.

Desyatov (w. Flores) is good too, from what we saw last season. We’ll be cheering both teams this season. Team USA’s dance roster is packed beyond the obvious top 5-6.

Hey, Larson/Kapran's metallic fuchsia spandex is straight outta the '80s and I approve! Caleb Wein's shirt, OTOH, looks like he bought Kana Muramoto's RD dress from last season and had it remade and it is NOT '80s at all.

 

[Amy L]

It looks like they all somehow put the 50s-80s in a blender and pulled out random pieces of clothing

so much for the 80s from people born decades later!
