Meet Kassy Kova and Justin Ross - The ONLY African American Ice Dance Team in the USA

There may be ice dance teams skating together where one member of the team is an African American, but Kassy Kova and Justin Ross are the ONLY competitive ice dancers skating together where both members are African Americans. They love to skate together and dream of competing in the Olympics someday. What is also unique about this ice dance team is that they've known each other since they were quite young. Many ice dancers have to relocate to find the perfect partner, but Kassy and Justin live only two blocks apart and learned to skate at the same rink!
