Doesn’t seem like she’s in the same form this season. It should also be noted that Whittaker, the heat winner, was only 0.1 ahead.

Stanford coach is doing a bad job at best.

Maybe she's still suffering mental problems, she had a rough time last year.

The fact that this heat was so close gives hope.

This girl had an immense amount of pressure on her even as a senior in high school with regard to obtaining a OT qualifier.
She had issues at Stanford too in terms of multitasking at nationals.
She is on a high level and with that, probably textbook depression and anxiety.
With her it is probably all or none. When all in, you get an all-time performer on the cusp of world level competitor. When not all in, she cant fake it. Today is evidence. She has all the talent in the world but when not head strong, season is a total scrap.
She has the ability but I think Stanford is too much pressure for her to find the balance she desires.
Ask yourself this: would Roisin Willis pull an all nighter to obtain a passing grade? In my view, she pulls the all nighter every single exam and is probably burning the candle wick at both ends. Today's result probably having something to do with that academic side of the struggle.

BS. Is she the only one who has to deal with academics? You are just using every losing effort as an opportunity to brag about Stanford academics. If academics is really a big factor, why don’t runners hold a debate after crossing finishing line to decide who actually wins the race?

Or option C: I have out attained your degener*te @ss 100x over and am empathetic toward her. Roisin is a wonderful, wonderful human being.

That race surprised me more than anything, while sampling today's results. The second heat looked stronger on paper. Yet it ended up with 5 qualifiers from the first heat and only the 3 automatic qualifiers from the second, with Willis out and Goriaran out. The BYU women's coach seemed stunned herself, when asked about the 800 prelims after their DMR victory.
The 800 races are not on YouTube yet, nor the mile prelims
