Stanford can't recruit

Gabi Ailes will be a frosh for the Stanford Cardinal this fall, where she looks to become the first-ever actual libero on The Farm (Yeah, I know, Fishburn, etc. They don't count.). And she's having quite the senior year.

Not only did Ailes help her high school win volleyball and basketball state championships, but this spring she decided to really apply herself as No. 2 singles player for the tennis team. The result? Oh, no big deal, she just won the Nebraska state championship for No. 2 singles, that's all.

Last year the future Cardinal only finished third in state, but that was while playing with the tennis coach's wife's racket. So this year, with a few private lessons under her belt and her own racket, she won the title.

How annoyed must all of Ailes's opponents be, knowing they lost to someone who's only playing the sport as a hobby? That'll stick in your craw.
