Competition notes

  • This was the first time the ISU Judging System was used at the U.S. Championships.[1][2]
  • Novice ice dancing teams Madison Hubbell / Keiffer Hubbell and Cathy Reed / Chris Reed tied in the first novice compulsory dance. The tie was broken by the technical elements score and so the Hubbells won that segment of the competition.[3]
  • Junior men's silver medalist Jonathan Trinh was not placed on the World Junior Championships team because he was not age-eligible.
