Mirai Nagasu remains “confused” at U.S. Figure Skating’s decision to snub her for the Sochi team, but said it won’t end her Olympic dreams.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a Facebook post early Thursday, Nagasu said she was still trying to process the decision to leave her off the Sochi team despite her third-place finish at the U.S. Championships.<\/strong> Ashley Wagner, who finished fourth, was selected instead based on her international results the past two years.<\/p>\n

Not being selected to this year’s team was devastating and I remain confused by U.S. Figure Skating’s decision to not select me to the 2014 Olympic or world teams,” Nagasu wrote. “Once I have time to fully process the impact of these decisions, I do know it will renew a fire inside of me. My Olympic journey does not end here.”<\/p>\n

Nagasu also wished Wagner, Gracie Gold and Polina Edmunds luck in Sochi, saying representing your country at the Olympics is one if the best experiences an athlete can have.<\/p>\n

Shameful!!!<\/strong><\/p>\n
