Roman Sadovsky and Emily Bausback claim 1st titles in men’s and women’s events
Piper Gilles and Paul Poirier had stood on the national figure skating podium seven times, but never on the top step.
But Saturday, after nearly a decade of skating in the large shadow of superstars Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir, they captured gold.
“It’s obviously something that we’ve worked really hard to get and it hasn’t come easily,” said Gilles. “But I think everything is about timing in life . . . we’re just both really proud of ourselves.”
