Answer: All finished in the top six places at the nationals 5000 meters last
June and all declined to represent the US at the World Cup. Seventh
finisher, Collette Liss will be running for American team.

Has the US ever had to go down so many places to get a World Cup
representative?

No Suzy-Favor Hamilton in the 1500 meters, either.
Nicole Teter is injured.  No Stacey Dragila.  Tim Montgomery is out.  Angelo
Taylor is only on the
relays.  See http://www.usatf.org/events/2002/IAAFWorldCup/roster.shtml for
the team.

Maybe this will be a good opportunity for some of the new blood.
