Abbott, Czisny to warm up for Worlds at International Challenge Cup

U.S. champion Jeremy Abbott and U.S. silver medalist Alissa Czisny will be getting a little more competition exposure two and a half weeks before the World Championships.  They will be competing at the International Challenge Cup in The Hague during the second weekend of March.

After winning his third U.S. title, Abbott was not at the recent Four Continents Championships due to injury and will likely be looking to give his short program quad toe some airtime before he hits the big stage at Worlds.  Czisny took the silver at Nationals but was also not at Four Continents - U.S. Figure Skating decided to not send her.

In addition to Abbott and Czisny, U.S. Figure Skating will be sending Leah Keiser to compete in the junior ladies' event and Jessica Pfund and AJ Reiss to compete in the junior pairs' competition.
