Hey again everyone! Hope you all are doing well and training hard. Mindee wanted me to give you another update of life here at Stanford. Tennis has been going pretty well recently. I reached two finals this fall, both in doubles: one at the Battle of the Bay Classic, the other at the ITA Northwest Regional Championships. My partner, Walker Kehrer, and I were actually just one point away from qualifying for National Indoors. It was a tough loss, but we put ourselves in a good position. Our coaches here are great, John and JJ Whitlinger and Brandon Coupe. They all are really great to have on the court in competition and practice, but are also really supportive of the team's academic goals. Speaking of academics, it is still tough and there is a lot of work, but I'm doing well overall. And morning workouts are tough but good as well. We usually do about a 45 minute circuit workout with tennis specific weight exercises, and then do another 45 minute workout consisting of bikes, sprints, etc. Also, the food is pretty good. The dining hall at Wilbur (where I live) is one of the best on campus, so I guess I got lucky! Keep up the hard work everyone, and I'll see you in December! Robert Stineman
