In pairs, Alexa Knierim and Brandon Frazier, both prior national champions with different partners, take a 6.16-point lead from Thursday’s short program into the free skate.

Knierim, an Olympian with now-retired husband Chris, can become the first U.S. pairs’ skater to win four national titles since Kyoko Ina took her fifth in 2002.

The top challengers are training partners, 2020 U.S. silver medalists Jessica Calalang and Brian Johnson, who are in the driver’s seat for the second of two pairs’ spots on the world team.
