SAN FRANCISCO, May 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ The global law firm of Winston & Strawn today filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court, for the Northern District of California, on behalf of a coalition of student-athletes at Stanford University whose teams were abruptly and unlawfully eliminated from varsity competition. The lawsuit contends that Stanford hid its secret plan to eliminate varsity teams from the students and their families in order to fraudulently induce the students to choose to attend, and remain, at Stanford, rather than pursue their dreams to play at the varsity level at another institution. Stanford deliberately led the students to believe that all of the school s varsity teams would continue to be supported in order to prevent the rapid loss of student athletes, coaches and alumni support.
