Liu scored a 40.24 in the short program to establish a narrow, albeit solid, lead heading into the final round.

U.S. Figure Skating congratulated Liu after her victory:

Fellow skater Polina Edmunds also congratulated the new champion of the young women's division:

In the novice men's division, Eric Sjoberg will take a slim 1.16-point lead over Maxim Naumov into Monday's free-skate round.

It was also a dominant day for Joseph Kang, who ran away with the intermediate men's national championship, winning by 11.59 points over Alex Wellman. Twins Joshua and Jasmine Fendi won the intermediate pairs title by four points.

U.S. Figure Skating congratulated the winners:

Monday's rounds will decide the champions of the novice men's, ladies' and pairs divisions before action picks up again Tuesday with the junior levels.
