Why/when did Kate Grace leave Oiselle?

She has about 10 seconds to shave off her 1500m PB, a few world championship medals and a few American Records to achieve before earning that distinction.
hence the use of the phrase "will be"
Hence the use of the words "maybe, maybe not"
"Will be" implies an inevitable occurrence
There are way to many variables in running to imply that something is inevitable. Especially when the bar is set at such a high standard.
I was wondering when Kate left oiselle too, or if she did. In her twitter and instagram bio, she still mentions oiselle, and was tweeting about them within the last week. Did she leave? Oiselle did not mention anything about her win on twitter, and she was not wearing a uniform. Weird...
Makes the same mistake many in her position make asking for too much money after one good year. She does have the luxury of her training set-up allowing for all shoe sponsorships and just pay Drew individually though.
She is the best mid-distance American prospect, probably out of Oiselle's pay grade now.

Where was Kim Conley? DNS,DNF?
Kim was pacing.
If so, it raises a question about early bloomers vs. late bloomers. The trio of 1500m former prodigies seems to be stagnating at an ok but not great level, while Rowbury and Simpson remain all-time US at 30+. Kate Grace has certainly been a late bloomer and now appears to be posed to challenge in the 1500. We've seen expectations far outrun performance for many young women - which is why the obsession with Grace Ping seems misplaced. It would probably be better for her to toil in obscurity while her talent blooms or dies.

Kate Grace will be the successor to Simpson and Rowbury
Does anyone have a link to centro's 3000
No, but basically what happened was he was paced, up until the 4th lap, and was way ahead of everyone else, and then zoomed through the last lap to win comfortably at 7:59.

Apparently, her contract with Oiselle was up January 1, so she's currently checking out her options. She's still on good terms with the folks at Oiselle, so they're supportive of her, despite not representing them at this time.

OK but how many 13 year old girls are really vying for the 3k indoor wr, and are getting the chance of running in a very competitive race? Seems like it might be a soft record. Yes, 9:43 is insane for a 13 year old, but maybe not so insane for Grace Ping.
Exactly Portlander.
Age records for pre pubescent athletes are pure rubbish. If there were something to be gained by it, I'm sure that all over Kenya, there are 1000+ little girls who could match the record books in every event. So what? They're still children.
The young Miss Ping is indeed impressive, but 9:4x @ 13 (almost 14 btw) is only so so, regardless of "indoor age record" blah blah blah.
Let her be a kid Dad!
So whose records is she breaking? Um, ever heard of Jordan Hasay?13 is pubescent, not pre-pubescent.

Impressed with Kate Grace, Austin Tamagno, and Jackson Mestler. Solid results for Jenkins and Centro and Hassan. Slightly disappointing results for Alexa Efraimson and Grace Ping.
Ever heard of a "rust buster?" :-)
(Or even training through races, or by racing?)

So, did Hasay go on to set any world records after puberty?? First to show up to the dance just means you showed up first. It's obviously worked out well from Hasay but take someone undertrained like say, Brie Oakley with all of 18 months of training and you realize, it really doesn't matter what you did at 13 years old. Talent rules. Kids should be kids. Dad should get help.
I honestly had no clue that Brie Felnagle was still competing.
