Skate Canada: Virtue, Moir staying with Zoueva
Reiging Olympic champions Virtue, Moir to remain in Canton
Reigning world and Olympic champion ice dancers Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir will continue to be coached by Marina Zoueva at Arctic Edge Ice Arena in Canton, Mich., Skate Canada confirmed Wednesday on Twitter.
A Twitter user asked the federation Tuesday on the social networking site, "Any news about V-M coaching? They stay with Marina Zoueva?"
Skate Canada replied, "yes, they are still with Marina."
While Zoueva and Arctic Edge General Manager Craig O'Neill confirmed to the Detroit Free Press on Sunday that the rink's top three teams -- including Virtue and Moir, Meryl Davis and Charlie White, and Maia Shibutani and Alex Shibutani -- would be remaining in Canton, neither the Canadians nor their federation made an official statement regarding their intentions until today.
This situation came about after the rink management's decision on Sunday to disallow Igor Shpilband, Zoueva's longtime coaching partner, from working at its facility.
