==Biography==
== Career ==
Lucash was brought together with Orscher because he was searching for a new partner, and he remembered Katie, so he gave her a call. They are both clockwise skaters and only a small portion of skaters skate in that direction. They skate at the [[ISCC]] in [[Simsbury, CT]].
Lucash was searching for a new partner when he remembered Orscher and gave her a call. Unlike most skaters, they both rotate clockwise. They trained in [[Simsbury, Connecticut]].<ref name=gs021016/>


In 2005, they won the gold medal at the [[U.S. Figure Skating Championships]]. The 2005-2006 season was a difficult one for them as Katie broke her foot over the summer and they missed a great deal of training time going into their most important season ever. In January 2006 at the US National Championships in St. Louis, MO they led the pack in Pairs after the short program. After the long program, they dropped to third and missed out on making the US Olympic team by .66 points.
In 2005, Orscher and Lucash won the gold medal at the [[2005 United States Figure Skating Championships|U.S. Championships]]. They went on to win the bronze medal at the [[2005 Four Continents Figure Skating Championships|2005 Four Continents Championships]]. At the [[2005 World Figure Skating Championships|2005 Worlds]], their placement combined with that of [[Rena Inoue]] / [[John Baldwin (figure skater)|John Baldwin]] earned the United States two entries to the [[2006 Winter Olympics]].


In the summer of 2005, Orscher broke her foot, causing them to lose training time before the 2005–06 season. In January 2006 at the [[2006 United States Figure Skating Championships|U.S Championships]] in [[St. Louis, Missouri]], they were in first after the short program but dropped to third after the long program and missed the Olympic team by .66 points.

Garrett Lucash (born September 21, 1978, in Attleboro, Massachusetts) is an American pair skater. With partner Katie Orscher, he is the 2005 U.S. national champion and 2005 Four Continents bronze medalist.

Career[edit]

Lucash was searching for a new partner when he remembered Orscher and gave her a call. Unlike most skaters, they both rotate clockwise. They trained in Simsbury, Connecticut.[1]

In 2005, Orscher and Lucash won the gold medal at the U.S. Championships. They went on to win the bronze medal at the 2005 Four Continents Championships. At the 2005 Worlds, their placement combined with that of Rena Inoue / John Baldwin earned the United States two entries to the 2006 Winter Olympics.

In the summer of 2005, Orscher broke her foot, causing them to lose training time before the 2005–06 season. In January 2006 at the U.S Championships in St. Louis, Missouri, they were in first after the short program but dropped to third after the long program and missed the Olympic team by .66 points.

Orscher and Lucash announced their retirement from competitive skating in April 2006.[2] Lucash is the co-creator and director of the National Figure Skating Academy in Boston, along with Dmitri Palamarchuk.

Personal life[edit]

Lucash is a Boston Red Sox fan. On August 1, 2007, he was featured on the first episode of the Red Sox themed dating show Sox Appeal, in which he went on three blind dates at Fenway Park during a Red Sox game against the San Francisco Giants.
