As someone who has interned many times, you don't automatically forget how to read/proof/spell when you're an intern. You are assuming these interns ever learned how to read/proof/spell in the first place. And it is not just the Pac-12 office, I see it in major newspapers (like the SJ Murky News) on a consistent basis the past several years. Maybe it is less staff, relying on spell checkers, people on snapchat, etc.

Back in my day we walked 10 miles to school, in the snow, uphill both ways, and we never made a proofreading error either.

As a Stanford fan, I frankly think Alade had a better year than Fitzmorris. At the very least their numbers were very comparable. Very similar in blocking with Alade hitting for a higher % and Fitz getting more kills. Fitz had a bigger reputation going into the season and that might have made the difference. But that isn't the right way to think about it...... I’ve been to all of the home games and fitz has a monster block she is much better at containing then Alade. If you look at a lot of replays fitz gets the meat of the block often. She is understated but without her they don’t take the pac 12. IMHO

In a stealth announcement, Casey Schoenlein of WSU was named as the winner of the scholar-athlete award.
(It may or may not be a coincidence, but they made the announcement the same day, Dec 6, that I sent an email to them asking when it would be announced. But they never bothered to reply to my email.)
