Ashley Cain-Gribble, Timothy LeDuc Win Pairs Title Ahead of Olympic Selection

Ashley Cain-Gribble and Timothy LeDuc won gold at the 2022 U.S. Figure Skating Championships on Saturday in Nashville. This was their second time winning the event and it likely earned them a trip to the Winter Olympics in February. But it could have also just helped LeDuc make history.

If the two stamp their ticket to Beijing, LeDuc will be the first publicly out nonbinary athlete to compete in the Winter Olympics.

The pair totaled 225.23 points to defeat Jessica Calalang and Brian Johnson, another pair fighting for an Olympic berth, and the two could be seen with tears in their eyes after the win.
