The Scott Hamilton Skating Academy hosted a U.S. Figure Skating SkateFest at the Ford Ice Center in Antioch, Tennes- see, on Jan. 31. The event was a huge hit with young and old skaters alike. The majority of the attendees were first-time skaters, stepping out with cour- age and trying something new. The Skating Academy team, headed by Hamilton, Olympian Bill Fauver and PSA master-rat- ed coach Paula Kaye Trujillo, provided a dynamic and upbeat energy and team approach to teaching participants the joy of ice skating.
LEXETTES, SKYLINERS TO REPRESENT TEAM USA The Lexettes and the Skyliners were chosen to represent the United States at the
2015 ISU World Junior Synchronized Skating Championships to be held in Zagreb, Cro- atia, March 13–14. The World Junior Team Selection Event was held February 6–7, 2015, in Marlbor-
ough, Massachusetts. As the U.S. Synchronized Skating Championships occurs about two weeks prior to the World Junior Synchronized Skating Championships, this annual event is held to determine the U.S. representatives. The Lexettes of Hayden Recreation Centre FSC won the event for the third year in a
row. They finished second in the short program, which put them at a four-point deficit going into the free skate. Their free skate to music from My Fair Lady bested the rest of the competition by almost 10 points, earning them 103.43 points. The Skyliners of The Skating Club of New York, winners of the short program, fin-
ished in second place. They placed fourth at the selection event last year and last com- peted at the World Junior Synchronized Skating Championships in 2013. Chicago Jazz finished third and the Hockettes were fourth.
