Figure Skating
By: Alicia
Did you know that Jan 23, 2010 was the U.S. Figure Skating Championships? Rachel Flatt won first place in this competition with a score of 200.11 points. Mirai Nagasu took the second place who scored 11 points behind Flatt. Third place went to Ashley Wagner. The Olympic silver medalist, Cohen, did not perform well and fell to fourth place. Cohen said "It wasn't the skate that I wanted, but it was how I could appreciate the challenge and obstacles I overcame." Among the winners, Ashley Wagner was the only U.S. woman to make the Grand Prix final last month and the bronze medalist at junior worlds. In 2009, she won five competitions, one 2nd place, two 3rd places, and two 4th places.
The Olympic team was to be named by the selection committee later. They will consister the results from the U.S. Figure Championships, Grand Prix final, worlds, and junior worlds competitions. Who do you think will make the U.S. Olympic team?

I think Rachel Flatt will make it, because she got the best score. She also won first prize! She must be good!
I think that Ashley Wanger will make it because she has won five competisions. One in second two in third and two in fourth in my perspective that is pretty good.
I think Ashley Wagner is going to make it to the U.S. Olympic team. Ashley Wagner was the only U.S. woman to the make it to the Grand Prix final last month. She won five competitions, one 2nd place, two 3rd place, and two 4th places.
I think Ashley Flatt will make it to the Olympic team. She already won the gold medal!
I think Rachel Flatt or Cohen will make it to the team. I think Flatt will make it because she is a Bronze medalist and she won first place. I think Cohen because he might have messed up but he is a silver medalist.
