Lana is currently skating in Olympic Trials, but here are her results from World Cups 3 & 4 (the two Olympic qualifying competitions). The team’s overall performances in these 2 World Cups qualified the USA to send 3 ladies to the Winter Olympics in Sochi - of those 3 who go, 3 will skate in the 500M & 1500M, and 2 will skate in the 1000M. We did not qualify a Ladies Relay team.
World Cup 3, Torino Italy (November 7-10, 2013) 1500M – Prelims (2nd); Heats (4th) 500M – Not Entered 1000M - Not Entered 3000M Relay – Lana skated in every leg of the relay, where the team finished 2nd in the Heats, 3rd in the Semifinals, and 3rd in the B Final
World Cup 4, Kolomna, Russia (November 14-17, 2013) 1500M – Heats (2nd); QF (6th) 500M – Not Entered 1000M - Not Entered 3000M Relay – Lana skated in the Heats, but the team got a Penalty and did not advance
