[edit] Biography

Weaver previously competed with Charles Clavey for the United States. Together, they were the 2006 US National pewter medalists on the junior level. They broke up after Nationals and Weaver teamed up with Andrew Poje of Canada. Due to a rule change that skaters need to only sit out one season between country hopping, Weaver and Poje were able to compete on the Junior Grand Prix circuit in the 2006/2007 season, winning two bronze medals. They went to the Canadian Figure Skating Championships and won the bronze medal in their first season together. Soon after, Weaver and Poje competed at the Junior World Championships in Oberstdorf, Germany, and won yet another bronze medal. Weaver and Poje capped off their season by competing at the 2007 ISU World Championships in Tokyo and finished 20th.
