In the next episode of Meet Team USA Figure Skating (Frozen Waters), a special mini-series from Unfiltered Waters, Katie sits down with Andrew Torgashev, U.S. Championships silver medalist and newly named Team USA member, fresh off one of the most emotional weeks of his career. Andrew reflects on the adrenaline crash after making the team, the quiet moments no one sees, and how he learned to manage nerves that followed him even off the ice. He opens up about visualization, grounding techniques, and the mantra that carried him through pressure-filled programs—along with what it means to fall, get back up, and make critical decisions in seconds. Thoughtful, vulnerable, and intensely competitive, this conversation continues the heart of Frozen Waters—a closer look at the journeys, identities, and inner lives of Team USA figure skaters on the road to the Games.
