Competition Notes
- This was the first time the ISU Judging System was used at the U.S. Championships.
- Novice ice dancing teams Madison Hubbell / Keiffer Hubbell and Cathy Reed / Chris Reed tied in the first novice compulsory dance. The tie was broken by the technical elements mark and so the Hubbells won that segment of the competition.
- Junior men's silver medalist Jonathan Trinh was not placed on the World Junior Team because he was not age-eligible.
