Great pic, Mtnme! Question: Do the guys get any individual points for the relay? If so, JR would possibly pass... Um, You... for #1 overall. |

Not according to ISU...here are the standings... 1 UM Cheon-Ho KOR 68 2 YOU Dong-Kun KOR 62 3 CELSKI J.R. USA 58 14 SERMENO Jonathan USA 30 ALVAREZ Eduardo USA And it looks like Robert Lawrence doesn't get diddly in points since he only skated the relays.  But he DOES get a medal!!!  __________________________________________ Ladies: 7 GRACE Mary USA 9 GEHRING Lana USA 10 DUDEK Alyson USA Hey, Look at that! All in the top 10. Ya know, in the 'grand scheme' of things, the ladies were actually as a whole more consistant than the guys! Good Job, Ladies!  |

It's been fun, ladies! I need to catch up on all the stuff I WASN'T doing while I was napping or watching flashing numbers.
I'm not 100% yet, Dove, but I'm rallying... I think it's just allergies!

Wow, that's great news on the relay! Two DQ's, oh my goodness. I love the shot of J.R. up on the podium. That's where we want to see him! It will be great to see the relay podium shot, as well. |

;DI hear that our men's relay team set a Jr. World record! ;D They were on fire! Great job, guys! I didn't realize that Wilma Boomstra was there -- IDK if she was there in an official capacity, or just keeping an eye on her youngun's. |

Trivia info: This is the first year that the ISU World Junior Championship Relays have been 3000m with 4 skater teams. Previously the relay events were 2000m with 3 skater teams.
Therefore the fastest teams this weekend set World Junior Records.
Congratulations to the US Men's Team for their record 4:06.032 in their semifinal
Congratulations to the Korean Women' Team for their record 4:16.702 in the semifinals
YAY TEAM !!!
