Miami skating ties to the DCA crash?

Since details are rolling in about the passenger list on the DCA flight that crashed, I was wondering if there are any ties from that disaster to Miami skating.

Hopefully not, but skating is a very small world.

None that I have heard

Apparently some of the kids killed were young and upcoming Olympics prospects from the Boston Skating Club. Their two former Russian Olympian skater coaches and the kids’ mothers were also onboard.

If members of our skating team have any ties to New England there could be a connection…As you note. Ice sports have a very narrow degree of separation…
