Angela has a shoulder injury. I think she dislocated it last year before Worlds, so she was unable to go. She re-injured it recently, and hasn't had enough time to prepare for Bofrost. Her official web site also mentions that she had a bad cold/flu recently. She is hoping to compete at her second GP event, which I think is NHK. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear she's going to be able to get the points needed for the GPF. Here's hoping she comes back and has a great Nats.
