Feb. 11, 2026: Colorado pairs team helps Team USA skate to gold; 'Go as a River' a global phenomenon

Over the weekend, pairs skaters Danny O’Shea and Ellie Kam helped the U.S. figure skating team win gold. O’Shea graduated from the University of Colorado - Colorado Springs. Kam’s still a student there. Pairs competition begins in earnest this weekend. We reached their coach, Drew Meekins, of Denver, Tuesday, in Italy. Then, Gunnison author Shelley Read's debut novel, "Go As a River," has now topped 1 million copies worldwide. We turn the page with her again at Colorado Mesa University.
