An issue with the CSC or master typically does not result in slippage. If you're in 3rd gear, ~30-35 mph and you nail it, does the rpm increase proportionally to the speed? If rpms shoot up way quickly, then it's definitely a worn clutch. Not covered under warranty unless you can convince them it's due to some other defect.

9,000 miles, if there is something wrong with the pressure plate or slave, it could prevent the clutch from fully engaging. The clutch is definitely not worn, especially since this change happened immediately after that pop during a normal shift.
