The great thing about Stanford is that it’s ‘student’ before ‘athlete’ and Rachel gets that.”

Legendary Stanford softballer or not, Mendoza certainly whiffed on the occasion of this endorsement.

Well, in fairness to Mendoza, she wasn't necessarily wrong either, as we've discussed earlier in the thread:

3.99 in Mech.Eng for Carolyn Lee??!! How is that even possible?? No wonder she can plot the ball's trajectories so precisely.

Congrats to all the all-Pac12 players (5 first team players, 2 second team players).  Not bad for a team that, well, sucked.

So yeah, I guess our softball team is bad at winning games as athletes but good at killing it at academics as students. Unfortunately we hired her to coach softball, not tutor mechanical engineering! But Mendoza's chief reason for endorsing her hiring wasn't off.
