Career

[edit | edit source]

Reagan began skating in 1998 at Americas Ice Garden in downtown Dallas. On August 1, 2005, he sustained a concussion in an on-ice fall and became blind in one eye for a year.[3][2] He focused on swimming for the next four years but then returned to skating.[3][4]

Reagan began skating with Ashley Cain in April 2009.[3] They were coached by David Kirby (son of Michael Kirby[5]) and Peter Cain at the Dr. Pepper Star Center in Euless, Texas.[6] Cain and Reagan finished 4th at the 2011 World Junior Championships and won the 2011 U.S. Junior title. On February 24, 2012, they announced the end of their partnership.[7]

On March 22, 2012, it was announced that Reagan had teamed up with 2011 U.S. senior champion Caitlin Yankowskas.[8] They were coached by Johnny Johns, David Kirby, and Marina Zueva in Canton, Michigan.[8][9] Yankowskas and Reagan were assigned to the 2012 Cup of China and the 2012 NHK Trophy but withdrew from both events after Reagan sustained a rib injury in practice.[10][11] They ended their partnership without having competing anywhere.[12] On April 29, 2013, Reagan and Becky Bereswill announced they had formed a partnership.[13] They too parted ways without appearing in a competition.

In October 2013,[14] Reagan was paired with Canadian skater Brittany Jones by Kristy Wirtz and Kris Wirtz, who coached the pair in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario.[15] Jones/Reagan decided to compete for Canada and placed seventh at the 2014 Canadian Championships. They changed coaches in spring 2015, moving to Bryce Davison.[16]

Jones/Reagan won gold at the 2016 U.S. International Classic after placing second in the short and first in the free.[17][18]
