Having won the gold, the twins will automatically be selected for the U.S. Figure Skating Association’s Developmental Team and will be eligible to represent the U.S. in international competitions. The twins’ big win was particularly remarkable considering that only weeks before Danielle had broken her pelvis at the Eastern Sectional Championships. The twins, who hope to make the U.S. Olympic team in 2014, were featured in a front-page story in the Oct. 9-15 issue of the Merrick and Bellmore Heralds.
