MSU’s Ultimate Frisbee Club made history by hosting a scrimmage for the first time.
University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) and Wayland Baptist University made the trip to Wichita Falls to compete on Oct. 6th.
The Ultimate Frisbee Club (UFC) was created two years ago in the fall of 2010 and formed a traveling team called Cavalry in the spring of 2011.
Since its birth in fall 2010, the UFC has grown in numbers, competed against teams from across America and has gotten involved with school activities.
Members of the club play Ultimate every Tuesday and Thursday at 3:30 p.m. in the quad.
Despite losing to UTD, the UFC was still excited to see how much the sport of Ultimate has grown on campus.
Club President Bryce Henderson said he is pleased with how the club has grown and matured.
“As people get more involved and the club identity continues to develop,” Henderson said, “the sport of Ultimate will keep getting bigger here at MSU.”
Cavalry’s next tournament will be at UTD Oct. 20-21.
Henderson said anyone who is interested in learning about the sport is encouraged to check it out.
