1. U.S.’ most medals in 10 years
The U.S. earned three medals in Boston, including the most vital one in the women’s competition. It’s the nation’s best output since 2006, though it lacked the gold-medal performance of the last Worlds in the U.S. in 2009 (Evan Lysacek).
The U.S. women will go into the 2017-18 season with their best international standing in a decade.
Ashley Wagner is now a World silver medalist in addition to a three-time Grand Prix Final medalist.
Yes, Gracie Gold dropped from her short-program lead to finish fourth, but she leaves Boston the most consistent elite woman in the world the last three years.
