Co-recruits John Wayne with Schtitt

texture · ~spring YDAU

• When: "last spring" relative to 6 Nov YDAU — i.e. ~spring YDAU
• What: deLint, with Schtitt, successfully recruited the top Canadian junior John ("No Relation") Wayne to E.T.A., on the pitch that two gratis years at an American academy would maybe let Wayne bypass the usual couple seasons of college tennis and go pro at nineteen. His one concrete, consequential act of institution-building in the book: Wayne becomes the Academy's best player, and the accidental dosing of that same recruit later hands deLint his other consequential act (event 9).
