Mei Hubnik

      

Hubnik’s step up to senior level competition has been admirable at both national and international level, continuing her strong run of results.

Having missed the 2012 Championships after winning her competition the year previously, Hubnik stepped up to senior competition in 2013, finishing third, before going one step better in 2014, finishing second.

2014 also saw Hubnik perform one of her best performances in the World Championships, finishing in a very impressive 15th overall.
