USA Wins Figure Skating Team Event Bronze Medal
At the conclusion of three days of competition at the PyeongChang Games, Team USA captured the bronze medal in the team figure skating event. Yay for U.S. figure skating medals! Skaters (and ice dancers!) had performed across all four rink disciplines - ladies, mens, pairs, and ice dance.
Canada's skating team took the gold medal, with the Olympic athletes from Russia in silver. Italy and Japan rounded out the top 5 teams, in 4th and 5th place respectively. The skaters will repeat their performances in their respective individual (or pairs) competitions over the next two weeks, but who's complaining?! I'd watch Mirai Nagasu's performance on repeat for hours, tbqh.
