Although Glenn didn't fall during her performance, the loop miscue ultimately led to a score of 67.39, which put her in 13th place by the end of the event.Glenn's teammates fared better, with America's Alysa Liu leaving the ice with a stellar score of 76.59, putting her in third behind Japan's Kaori Sakamoto (77.23) and Ami Nakai (78.71).Liu received a massive ovation following the emotional performance, set to the tune of Laufey's "Promise," and smiled as she pumped her fists while taking in her Olympic moment.Their U.S. teammate, Isabeau Levito, secured a score of 70.84, putting her in eighth going into the free skate on Friday.Team USA hopes that one of the three skaters will end a 20-year medal drought for America in women's singles figure skating.See All UpdatesClose
