The 2013 event was the second time that Omaha hosted the U.S. Championships. Competitors qualified at the Eastern, Midwestern, or Pacific Coast Sectional Championships or earned a bye. Defending champion Jeremy Abbott won the men's short program, with Ross Miner in second and Joshua Farris in third. Max Aaron placed first in the free skate, Miner was second, and Abbott third. Aaron won gold, his first senior national medal, Miner took silver, Abbott the bronze, and Farris the pewter medal. Defending champion Ashley Wagner was first in the ladies' short program, followed by Agnes Zawadzki and Mirai Nagasu. Gracie Gold won the long program and rose from 9th to claim the silver medal, while Wagner was second in the segment but first overall and won her second national title. Bronze medalist Zawadzki's combined score kept her on the podium and Courtney Hicks took the pewter medal.
