The RedHawks take on the national field in Providence, R.I. this weekend.
OXFORD, Ohio – The Miami synchronized skating team's season hits its climax this weekend as it battles for a pair of national championships.
MU heads to Providence, R.I. for the US Synchronized Skating Championships this weekend. The competition runs on Friday and Saturday. Friday's slate sees the senior team perform its short program at 4:54 p.m. Saturday's final day of competition has the collegiate team go through its free skate at 4:44 p.m. and the senior team perform the free skate at 7:04 p.m.
The RedHawks' senior team is vying for a top-two finish to qualify for the International Skating Union World Synchronized Skating Championships in April. Miami has scored at least 179 in its last three competitions, topped by a 186.98 at the Leon Lurje Trophy in late January. The Red & White's top outing in their 'Amazing Grace' short program was a 65.3 and their highest score in their 'Rise Up' themed free skate was 121.68, both of which came at the Leon Lurje Trophy. MU has made 12 appearances at the World Championships and is looking for its first berth since 2016.
After winning its 19th national championship last season, Miami's collegiate team roared out of the gates and placed first in its first four competitions. The RedHawks' top performance came in the Midwestern Championships in January, where they recorded a 100.32. MU has scored at least 82.75 in its 'Me and My Girls' themed free skate in all five competitions.
Live video will be available to subscribers via NBC Sports all weekend long. Full results and a recap of both days will be posted on MiamiRedHawks.com.
