I see that Tarik van Wieren is entered on the world cup start list tomorrow along side Mackenzie Boyd-Clowes. Maybe still a small chance to qualify a mixed team. The qualification system is very favourable towards smaller countries

Unfortunately Tarik finished 69 out of 69 competitors in qualification

I'm not 100% clear on how they allocate the quota, but there seems to be special consideration given to teams with 0-1 jumpers for either sex to get an 2nd so they can field a mixed team and/or men's "super" team. So might have hope. 

They did come in a respectable 8th of 15 in the mixed team

Sets a hill record in round two, she’s always strong in those closing rounds.

Finished ahead of Nozomi Maruyama too... I was starting to wonder if anyone would. She kinda came out of nowhere and was CRUSHING everyone this year

 

Strate is putting together a really nice season.
