|August 07, 2025
In their second season in the junior division, U.S. ice dancers Anaelle Kouevi, 14, and Yann Homawoo, 16, competed at last week's Lake Placid Ice Dance Championships, coming away with a strong second-place finish. This summer, the duo have focused on training and the results of their hard work are clear.
“The competition was fun for us because we had all of our friends around. I think it was our best competition so far this season,” said Homawoo. “We're progressing pretty well as a team and individually. We've made major improvements since last season, even since our first competitions” (this was their third competition of the summer).
