I don't think this can be changed now, can it? Everyone was told it was a qualifier. I doubt they'd change it now.

The PAL is a qualifier to the U.S. Championships and the winners in each weight class will be seeded into the quarterfinals. All quarterfinalists will advance to the Olympic Box-offs (Trials).

He was. You must have seen the reply just before I deleted it. Please disregard.

Just remember the USOC still has yet to approve the Olympic Selection Procedure drafted by USA Boxing. Changes could still be made.

I understand it has been approved. But considering that USAB is lagging in the area of communication, we probably won't find out until next year. I believe that the USOC mandates that group members, i.e., Golden Gloves and PAL, bring their own teams to the U.S. Championships.
