Thank you in advance!
The JSF thought that Mai Mihara, the fourth-place finisher at Nationals, deserved a high-profile assignment in the second half. Since Satoko was the bronze medalist, she was the one who was bumped from the 4CC roster, and got this as an alternative.As regards senior ladies, since I don't follow them that much, I don't know Satoko Miyahara's status. Why isn't she competing at 4CC that is taking place at the same time? Wasn't she assigned to the team because of bad results at Japanese Nationals or are there any other reasons?
