As alumni returned home for the Thanksgiving holiday, the Ultimate Frisbee team held a practice game on Nov. 24 that featured current and past students.
“A lot of the guys play in college and have been playing for a lot of years,” sophomore Gregory Ryterski said. “So they have a lot of experience.”
The team members played against former team members in an event they call Ultimate Frisgiving. In addition to a competitive game, the outing allows the former players to give the current team tips on how to improve in certain situations or plays.
“Playing against the alums prepares us for losing,” Brown said.
This is the second Frisgiving and featured more than last year.
“[Last year] wound up being a lot of fun,” junior and co-captain, Emily Cooper said. “We got to see everybody again.”
During a game, members line up and the original team captains pick their teams and then scrimmage.
“I played on Thanksgiving because I wasn’t doing anything anyway,” Brown said. “It was great seeing everybody again.”

Practices are held Thursday nights after school and Sundays at 1 p.m. As it gets colder, practices will be held later in the gym.
“I like ultimate because other sports require actual physique, and you don’t actually have to be good to start,” sophomore Worth Brown said.
