Vise/Kole in the jgp final

[icetiff]

Brittany Vise and Nick Kole got the call today saying that they are going to the jgp final!!!

WOW! That's great. They will represent us so well.

Great! Which pair withdrew??

[Trillian]

Well, it looks like Varraux & Pelletier haven't withdrawn--the USFSA now lists both V&P and V&K on their international assignments page, so both pairs should be competing. (Great for Vise & Kole, btw! :))

Which leaves the Canadians, the Ukrainians, and five Russian teams; one of them must be out. The Ukrainians just competed last weekend in Japan so I'm assuming they're healthy. Enough Canadians participate on this board that we'd probably hear quickly if Dube & Davison were out. Probably one of the Russian couples?

Yes, I'm told it's Ushakova/Popov (6th place in the point standings).
