My read of the US Sailing team selection process is that the top three ISAF ranked sailors are teams 1 through 3..
So that puts Newberry Daniel Hudson in the OCR's with their new partners. (usually the helm takes priority)
The US probably gets 2 more slots that will be awarded at the MLK event.
I would say that Casey, Easton and Mendelblatt are the most experienced helms in the remaining pool and hopefully the US gets six teams into the OCR.
It will be very tough to get into the remaining gold cup events without scoring well at the OCR and that is important to have a good shot that a team could catch fire an qualify the US for a spot.
