W Rowing: Mary Cooper - 81alum - 12-29-2021
Just saw this feature story on GoStanford and thought it was worthy of comment.

Mary Cooper sounds like an incredible young woman in a sport that has gotten only modest attention here.
My favorite line: "I think you have my daughter's leg in your cart."

I liked this segment:
"Imagine their shock when Mary’s leg flew off during play.
“I used to feel for them,” Tom said. “We would laugh because we were used to it. But you’ve got to imagine, if you’ve never seen this before, when some kid’s leg goes flying off, you’d be mortified. Absolutely mortified. Mary would just hop to her leg and keep going.”"
