Edge pre-juveniles win second medal The Oakville Edge pre-juvenile team earned its second medal of the synchronized skating season recently at the Cupid's Caper Competition in Brampton. The team pleased the judges and the crowd with its beautifully choreographed program, set to the music from Horton Hears a Who. The skaters earned an overall score of 17.82 points, ranking them third out of 15 teams in the Gold final. "We are very proud of the skaters. This was their best performance so far both technically and artistically," said Jayda Everett-Malcolm, the team's coach. "They exceeded their goal of making it into the Gold final and earning their personal-best score. It was one of those performances that you just don't forget." The pre-juvenile team represents the Oakville Skating Club and consists of 14 skaters, ranging from eight to 11 years of age.

Oakville's novice and juvenile teams also won medals at that event. The novices twice eclipsed their previous bests, finishing with 64.16 points to win gold. The juveniles earned a score of 37.96 to finish second, nine points ahead of the thirdplace team. "I am very proud of all the teams and the progress they have made this season," Oakville Edge head coach Michelle Gaillie said. "(Six-OSynchro) was a testament to their hard work and dedication.
