Skate Canada Competition Challenging for Andrew Athlete Michelle Pinon News Advertiser Even though Andrew area athlete Colton Foreman didn’t have his best performances at the Skate Canada Challenge in Region Dec. 1 and 2, he has already put it in perspective and is working harder than ever to up his game. Colton said his performance in the short program wasn’t bad, but things fell apart in the long program, when he fell several times throughout the performance. What hurts, said Colton is even if he had a mediocre skate in both programs it would have been enough to go to Nationals. While it was heartbreaking in many respects, Colton has returned more determined than ever. In fact, for the first time ever he has landed three
different types of triple jumps, which is an exciting new milestone for him. Colton said consistency is key in the sport and will be training hard to

improve on that. His has not lost focus or drive and is looking to future with a positive outlook. Coach Terri Gallant stated that, “Overall the Skate Canada Challenge competition was a good learning experience for Colton. It can be hard going to a competition of this calibre for the first time. He definitely didn’t have the performances he wanted to but being around all the other athletes at that level was such a good thing for him. He was mad he didn’t perform better and came back motivated to work hard and continue improving. From where Colton’s skating was one and a half years ago to where it is now is really impressive. I’m excited to see where he will be at by next fall.”
