I don't know of this is the best way to do it, but I definitely understand your intentions. IMO, you have to go through a whole season to truly understand FRC (and if you want to be involved in design you have to go through 2.) I think with a mentor, just making sure a supportive team culture exists where he is able to ask questions and making sure he has access to resources is more important than assigning him a specific mentor.
