March 18-20, 2016, was a great weekend for racing. The Short Track AMCup 3 / Age Group Nationals were held at the Verona Ice Arena in Madison, Wisconsin. For the second year in a row, the meet was put on by Tom Riley and Bob Neville, and was hosted by the Madison Speedskating Club. Speedskaters from different clubs across the United States participated in the Age Group Nationals Competition, including skaters in the Masters category, Pony and Midget men and ladies, and skaters from Junior A, B, and C groups. Speed skaters also participated in the AM Cup Competition. Evan Flaherty of Glen Ellyn Speed Skating Club, won a pair of Maple Gold FG Blades in the raffle, which were donated by Cascade Speedskates.
