"A player from Stony Brook University’s basketball team was
charged Wednesday with the alleged rape of a minor, authorities
said.
Blair Mendy, 22, a sophomore from San Jose, California, was
charged with third-degree rape, sexual misconduct and
endangering the welfare of a child, said university police Chief
Robert J. Lenahan.
Mendy is expected to be arraigned Thursday.
Lenahan declined to comment on the alleged victim’s age and
circumstances of the incident.
Reached by phone, Mendy’s father said in an interview he did not
know about the arrest and could not believe the charges against
his son.
“I think my kid was raised very well,” said Augustus Mundy, a
banker in Palo Alto, California. “I find it very incredible to
believe. I taught him to be a gentleman, treat ladies well. I
always taught him to make the right choice.’’
The Stony Brook sophomore had been captain of his high school
basketball team during his junior and senior years, according to
his webpage with the Stony Brook Seawolves team. He has played
two Seawolves games so far in the school year, his game
statistics show.
Mendy became the fourth player from the men’s basketball team to
be arrested in the last 10 months.
Last October, the team’s top returning player, projected
starting guard Ahmad Walker, 23, of Port Washington was
suspended from the team after being charged with second-degree
harassment, a violation, and resisting arrest, a misdemeanor,
from an incident that occurred on Sept. 10, 2016.
In April of 2016, shortly after Stony Brook made its first
appearance in the NCAA Division I Tournament, against Kentucky,
senior forward Rayshaun McGrew and sophomore guard DeShaun
Thrower were charged with third degree grand larceny and third
degree criminal mischief in connection with an alleged theft.
Their cases are still pending."

"A Stony Brook University basketball player pleaded not guilty
Thursday to third-degree rape and two lesser charges.
Blair Mendy, 22, a sophomore from San Jose, California, is
accused of having sexual intercourse with someone younger than
17 years old. He is also charged with sexual misconduct and
endangering the welfare of a child, both misdemeanors.
Suffolk prosecutors asked that Mendy be held on bail of $50,000
cash, said district attorney’s office spokesman Robert Clifford,
but First District Court Judge Pierce Cohalan set bail at $2,000
cash or bond. It was unclear Thursday afternoon if Mendy had
posted bail.
His attorney, Camille Russell of Westbury, was not immediately
available for comment.
If convicted, Mendy faces a maximum of 1 1⁄3 to 4 years in
prison.
...
Mendy is due back in court March 6."

Anyone want to take a guess whose picture is on the season
ticket for the game against Maine on Sunday?
