OTTAWA -- Kaetlyn Osmond won her second consecutive women's singles title at the Canadian figure skating championships Saturday, and officially secured her spot in the Sochi Olympics.
The 18-year-old from Marystown, N.L., battled back from two injuries that kept her off for much of the past four months, to score 207.28 points.
Gabrielle Daleman, a 15-year-old from Newmarket, Ont., provided the surprise of the event, passing Amelie Lacoste in the long program to finish second with 182.47.
Lacoste, from Delson, Que., was third with 166.69.
