Just a couple years ago she was essentially National Champion, then had a bad season and missed Nationals due to injury, and now has come in near-last in a GP event which had a pretty weak field overall. I think it's pretty clear that she just can't do the college thing and keep her skating together. She has some hard choices to make. They are either to postpone college and try to salvage her skating career for a while, to keep on with the status quo and probably keep having results like this, or to give up competition, if not forever then at least while she is in college. I fear she may do the latter, because of how much she has fallen in status, because of the tough competition in the US right now, because of her injuries, and because I get the feeling college is becoming more important to her than skating. I could be wrong, but I'm kinda bracing myself for some kind of announcement later this season.
