    October 25, 2020 Las Vegas, USA Guaranteed Rate Skate America Day Two Two-time ISU World Figure Skating Champion Nathan Chen (USA), Mariah Bell (USA), Alexa Scimeca Knierim/Brandon Frazier (USA) and two-time Ice Dance ISU World Figure Skating medalists Madison Hubbell/Zachary Donohue (USA) struck gold as Guaranteed Rate Skate America concluded in Las Vegas (USA) Saturday with the Free Skating and the Free Dance. Following a decision of the ISU Council due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and travel restrictions, the Grand Prix events are primarily domestically run events with domestic skaters and skaters who train in the host country or respective geographical region competing. Mariah Bell (USA) claims first Grand Prix title at Skate America Mariah Bell (USA) claimed her first ISU Grand Prix title at Guaranteed Rate Skate America. Teammates Bradie Tennell and Audrey Shin collected the silver and bronze medals. Overnight leader Bell started her entertaining ABBA medley well with a double Axel-triple toe combination. The National silver medalist followed up with five more clean triples and two level-four spins. However, she missed her last jump, a triple Lutz attempt. Bell ranked fourth in the Free Skating with 136.25 points, but overall held on to first place with 212.73 points. “It was a little shaky and I felt a little bit stiff, but I'm excited to be able to get my long program out kind of in a competition setting,” the newly minted Skate America Champion said. “I am walking away from this performance a little bit disappointed, but at the end of the day I can be proud.
