Olympic coach Peter Cain remembers his close friends, Evgenia and Vadim, as the skating world grieves the loss of beloved coaches and mentors.
On board the American Airlines flight 5342 were elite figure skaters, coaches, and relatives who had been at a camp in Wichita. Some of their names have been released by the Skating Club of Boston.
Coach Cain coached his daughter, Ashley Cain, who is a two-time national champion and Olympian. So, he'd bonded the couple over the balance of being a parent and an effective coach.Cain said even before the names of the victims were released, he'd seen where the flight was coming from and just knew his friends and their athletes were likely involved.
“When we heard that the plane was from Wichita, we had a feeling that this morning when we woke we would find out they were skaters and coaches on that flight,” said Cain.Cain said he'd bonded with the renowned couple while coaching his daughter Ashley, who took an earlier flight back to Texas and made it home safely.
