Ice dancing team Brianna Delmaestro and Timothy Lum skated to a seventh place finish at the National Figure Skating Championships in Halifax last month.
The duo scored a 57.6 and an 88.07 for a final total of 145.67, putting them behind Quebec’s Andreanne Poulin and Marc-Andre Servant, who finished with 156.37.
Kaitlyn Weaver and Andrew Poje of Nova Scotia took gold with 191.83, while the team of Piper Gilles and Paul Poirier took silver with 179.82. Bronze medalist pair Elisabeth Paradis and Francois-Xavier Ouellette finished with a 165.83.
This is not the first time that Delmaestro, a Port Moody athlete, and Lum, who hails from Burnaby, have competed on the national stage.
The duo are reigning junior national champions and were bronze medalists in the junior category in 2014.
They have represented Canada internationally for the last three years, earning medals on the International Skating Union Junior Grand Prix circuit in 2014. The pair took bronze at an event in Dresden, Germany, and a silver in Ljubljana, Slovenia.
