Glenn defends US national title as Liu falters lateChock and Bates take big lead after rhythm dance

Glenn scored 216.79 points while Liu, the two-time national champ in the midst of a comeback from a two-year retirement, had 215.33 points – the difference just may have been a mistake that Liu made on the final spin of her free skate.
