HUNTLEY - Illinois native and pairs figure skater Alexa Knierim is headed to the Olympics again, this time performing with a new partner and encountering new protocols.
Knierim, of Addison, competed with her husband, Chris, in the 2018 Winter Olympics in Seoul. After Chris’s retirement, Knierim continued to skate with a new partner, Brandon Frazier.
The two managed to team up in the middle of the pandemic, ultimately qualifying for the 2022 Olympics in Beijing.
Knierim is thrilled to attend her second Olympics, and is the first U.S.
