The Kelowna Skating Club showed its skill and depth at the 2016 Super Series BC Summerskate last weekend in Burnaby.
Twenty-eight local skaters travelled to the second stop of this season’s Super Series to compete with top skaters from B.C., Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Ontario. The Kelowna team won 14 medals, including six gold.
A highlight occurred at the Pre-Novice Women’s level, with Kelowna skaters winning two of the three competitive groups.
In group 1, Daria Carr, 12, won both of her segments and finished with 97.44 points. Her score was a personal best, as well as the highest posted of her level at the event.
In group 2, 11-year-old Vienna Harwood took the gold medal with a score of 86.07. Her club mate Maya Rose finished second.
The Kelowna Club also dominated at the Juvenile Women under-12 division, sweeping the gold medals in two of the three groups.
Malayna Lesko won group 3 with a score of 29.77 points, while Emily Sales won group 2 with a 26.92 points finish. Brooklyn Cowen won bronze in group 1.
At the Novice level, Emma Bulawka won silver in group 1, while Mikayla Kramer won bronze in group 2.
