Jamie and David started the season off with a surprise first-place finish at Skate America in late October, where they defeated World champions Berezhnaya & Sikharulidze.
David started skating pairs after his dad convinced him to watch the '88 Olympics on television. He saw Canadians Brasseur and Eisler and was amazed by how far Brasseur flew in the air. He knew then that he wanted to switch over to pairs skating.
