Yesterday the free dance, men's free skate and pair short program were held and the US team, comprised of Evan Lysacek, Jeremy Abbott, Rachael Flatt, Caroline Zhang, Caydee Denney and Jeremy Barrett and Tanith Belbin and Ben Agosto, was able to maintain their lead from Day 1 of the competition. Today, the pairs and ladies free skate were held and the US team held onto their lead to win the gold. Tomorrow is the exhibition gala to conclude the event.
