Michelle Kwan: 1994 US Figure Skating Championships Long Program - In third place heading towards the free skate or commonly known as the long program, thirteen year old Michelle Kwan skates a terrific long program to move up to second place and clinch the second the spot for the Winter Olympic Games in Lillhammer, Norway. However do the circumstances of the Nancy Kerrigan, the USFSA and IOC place Kerrigan on the Olympic Team over Michelle. Michelle would go to the Winter Olympic Games as the first alternate.

Lysacek not part of Grand Prix season

http://sports.espn.go.com/oly/figure...ory?id=5281859

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -- Next season's Grand Prix assignments are out and Evan Lysacek's name is nowhere to be found.

The Olympic champion received no assignments for the six Grand Prix events, a possible indication he will leave competitive skating -- or at least take the upcoming season off. Lysacek has said he plans to continue, but he also skipped last March's worlds, where he was defending champion. South Korea's Kim Yu-na, the women's champion in Vancouver, drew assignments to Cup of China and Cup of Russia.

U.S. Olympians Johnny Weir and Jeremy Abbott will compete, as will Rachael Flatt and Mirai Nagasu.

Ice dance silver medalists Meryl Davis and Charlie White will participate at Skate America in Portland, Ore., and at NHK Trophy in Nagoya, Japan. Fellow Olympians Emily Samuelson and Evan Bates also will be at NHK Trophy, as well as Trophee Eric Bompard in France.

Two-time Olympian Weir was assigned to Skate Canada and Trophee Bompard. Abbott got NHK Trophy and Cup of Russia, the only American man scheduled to go to Moscow.

Nagasu, who was fourth in Vancouver, will skate at Trophee Bompard and Cup of China in Beijing. Flatt got Skate America and NHK Trophy.

U.S. pairs champions Caydee Denney and Jeremy Barrett were assigned NHK and Skate America. Fellow American Olympians Amanda Evora and Mark Ladwig are headed to Cup of China and Cup of Russia.

1948 Winter Olympics Figure Skating - Dick Button and Barbara Ann Scott we get to see their rivals, Edi Rada in mens and Gretchen Merrill together with (rather strangely) Jill Linzee of Great Britain who finished 19th!! We also see practice clips of the pairs winners, Micheline Lannoy and Pierre Baugniet together with Canadian bronze medallists Suzanne Morrow.
