ALBANY — Figure skater Ryan Bradley, the 2011 U.S. champion and three-time collegiate champion, skated Friday at the Empire State Plaza ice rink.

In 2010, an injured foot landed him in 18th place at the World Championships in Torino. At the 2011 U.S. Figure Skating Championship, he became the overnight leader with a quadruple jump and went on to earn his first U.S. title.

Bradley retired from competitive skating in 2012 and joined the 2012 Stars on Ice cast. This year marks his sixth year touring with the show. He also has commented for NBC and conducted behind-the-scenes interviews at the past several U.S. Championships.
