Club Profile: Ultimate Frisbee

By Matt Hall

What is your record?
There are normally seven games a weekend. We usually go 5-2 or 6-1 per weekend.

How did you do in the Battlefield Brawl?
We took 3 rd. Messiah won the tournament.

Are there often a lot of crowds at the tournaments?
Not really. Basically if there are people it’s because we forced them to. Hopefully we will reserve the turf field for the spring tournament so that will draw a bigger crowd.

How is the team in comparison to others?
Messiah is the only team that can clearly beat us. This year we have the best team we have had in four to five years.

How many players are on the team?
Around 25-30. We bring 13 to 16 people to a typical tournament. This year there are two teams so we can bring more people.

How did you get the name Pan Fried Funk?
The rumor is the founders of the team got it because they had to walk by the Pizza House everyday, so there is some sort of connection.

What is a typical practice like?
We run a lap or two for warm-ups, stretch, and then two drills focusing on fundamentals of throwing and defense for about an hour. Practices usually run from four to six.

How would one go about becoming a member of the team?
Just show up. We have practice on the intramural fields. To officially get on the team you have to pay dues.
