USAG named those who will contend for the 2020 Olympic team.

The US National Team will be reformed at the National Championships this summer, and that will be the group that moves on to Olympic Trials.
Winter Cup AA champions were based on night 1 results only this year.

Somehow two NCAA judges invented some reason to call this series of errors less than a 0.5 deduction.
I feel they should be called out for an impossible score.
