USA's Ashley Wagner ends drought, takes silver in Figure Skating Worlds

BOSTON -- Ashley Wagner, the three-time U.S. national champion who bombed the last time she skated at TD Garden in 2014, turned in the performance of her life Saturday night on the same ice to win world silver and break the United States’ 10-year women’s world championship medal drought.

“My two experiences in here were equally as dramatic, and this is definitely the one I will cherish for the rest of my life,” said Wagner, who was placed on the 2014 U.S. Olympic team by a committee vote after she finished a shocking fourth at the U.S. trials in the Garden.
