As sensible as that strategy sounds, I have never seen the USFSA follow it, so I don't think that "usual" is the right word.
The US will have no seeded skaters in ladies next year (Last year Rachael was seeded, so some of the choice was taken off the table). The only real choice the USFSA will have is who to invite to Skate America. I think it will be Mirai and Rachael, if Rachael competes -- Mirai and Ashley otherwise. (Just my guess.)
It sounds like Rachael is strongly considering taking a year off before going to college. Is it bad that I kind of want her to go to college next year? It's nothing against Rachael but she's just kind of boring and I'd like to see some of the other ladies have a chance to go to Worlds. Also, she seems oddly fine with the mediocre scores she's been getting recently, which is unusual for her. I don't know what's going on.
