Women Level 9 eastern qualifiers

[Muddlethru]

How many girls qualify to Level 9 eastern championship? The USAG website indicates the top 6 gymnasts. However, my daughter is watching a friend compete and they are announcing top 7 as national qualifiers and 8 and 9 as alternates. Did they change rules?

It is 7. It changed this year. Last year was 6.
