Senior Andrew Kirkham is involved in a variety of school activities, including marching band, cross country, and debate. Despite his jam-packed schedule, he and some friends managed to find the time to found a school-sponsored ultimate frisbee team last year.
“Freshman year after football games, all the band guys would get together and play ultimate frisbee on the turf,” Kirkham said. “So finally last year we thought it’d be cool to make it a legitimate team.”
They found a gym teacher from Central Middle, Mike Fritz, to coach the team. It appears so far, so good, according to Kirkham.
“We ended up beating two teams,” Kirkham said. “We totally shut out West Minister.”
Kirkham looks forward to their second season this spring, and hopes that underclassmen will get involved and take over the team once him and his friends graduate.
