Say,has anyone heard of a Figure Skater named Chrissy Hughes? Does anyone know if she's related in any way to Sarah and Emily? Or is Hughes just a popular name for skaters these days, and it's just a strange coincidence?

Excerpt from a recent interview with Chrissy Hughes at: http://www.worldwideice.com/093007-chrissyhughes.html
People ask me all the time if I am related to Sarah or Emily Hughes. I was asked this question A LOT during and around the time Sarah won the Olympics. I just say no, but that would be really neat, except that the Hughes family lives on the other side of the country.
