Women's Ultimate
Ultimate Frisbee is one of the newest up-and-coming sports, and the women’s team is always looking for new players- no experience necessary. We’re a competitive team, and we attend tournaments all over the east coast. We also have a lot of fun. Practices are Tues/Thurs from 5:00-7:00pm on Bower Field and running practices are on Mon/Wed from 6:00-7:00pm on Franklin Field.

Fall Results
In the fall, results are rarely tabulated as most tournaments are informal and do not affect a team's overall standing for copmetitive play in the spring. We attended three tournaments, the first at Rutgers University (in which we placed 1st), the second at Haverford College (the tournament was called "Haverween", and we placed approximately 5th), and a final tournament at the University of Delaware, in which we again placed approximately 5th.
Spring Schedule
We qualified to nationals for the first time since 1996 by placing second in our regional tournament. We were seeded the 20th seed (out of 20) at nationals but all of our hard work paid off. We made it to the quarterfinals, earning us a fifth place finish overall. It was the biggest seed jump in the history of the tournament.
