Michael Marinaro
Biography
Michael Marinaro teamed up with Kirsten Moore-Towers in the spring of 2014. After their first season together, Moore-Towers and Marinaro decided to switch coaches, moving from Waterloo, Ontario to Montreal to work with Bruno Marcotte in a more competitive environment. That decision quickly paid off.
In October 2015, they won bronze at Skate Canada International for their first Grand Prix medal together. They went on to post their second straight fourth place finish at the national championships but ended up going to the 2016 World Championships as injury replacements and finished a very respectable eighth.
That August, Moore-Towers sustained a Stage 3 concussion in training. She tried to return too quickly, which only prolonged her recovery time. It took eight months before she could go one day without symptoms, taking them out of competition until the 2017 Canadian Championships where they won the bronze medal.
In November 2017, they won their second Grand Prix medal, a bronze at the Cup of China. Another bronze at the 2018 Canadian Championships earned them a spot on the Olympic team.

Lawrence and Swiegers placed first in the long with 84.16 points, but remained in a very close second overall with a total of 129.07 points. The team opened their routine with a pair combination spin and clean side-by-side double Axels, which set the tone for their routine to music from the Rudy soundtrack. The audience was captivated as each element was completed which included a magnificent and true throw triple Lutz, a very good throw triple loop, and two good lifts.
Although there were a couple of small errors, Lawrence and Swiegers’ performance produced the first standing ovation of these championships. The arena was buzzing with excitement and wonder about this team that were virtually unknown until today.
“We knew what we had to do and what we could do and we just wanted to skate our best,” Lawrence later told the press. “We trained really hard all year long.”
Pisotta and Stewart skated with wonderful line and unison, which flowed to the music as it built to a climax in their Tura}
