It's the the third time in the last decade the event will take place in Greensboro, which is extremely unusual.
Senior Director of Events for U.S. Figure Skating Bob Dunlop said it's been a success all around.
He said the support from the local community is what makes the city stand out.
“It means the community knows about it. They're interested in it. They've shown that interest in the previous two events and it makes a real easy decision for
U.S. Figure Skating and to award those championships back to a community for a third time within a ten year span,” said Dunlop.
Dunlop emphasized Greensboro has really embraced the sport and he said this type of environment is what makes the athletes want to come back too
