A D-III Nationals berth is still up in the air, but it's exciting to think that we're even on the brink. Even more exciting is that the Alumni and other members of DC's Ultimate community have taken part in sculpting the team this year. I just want to take a quick moment to thank a few people for their help this year.
Dave Alexander - Of course we have to thank Dave for all of his help teaching skills and just being a calming influence on the team. It's great to see him at tournaments in the area and he is always a source of great information for the younger and older players on this team.
The Alum - Jimmy De Martini, John Templon, Mike Karpovich, Sean Dorsy, Rachel Dudek, Tim Crowley, Dan McKenna, Matt McCafferty, and Alan Woods have all shown up at one point or another to add experience to our practices and do some one-on-one skills work when needed. Big thanks to these guys.
Matt Broaddus - A legend in the making. This guy is the focal point of many great Ultimate stories and he has added his name to another by helping Bad Habit through much of our Fall season. As inspiring to watch as it is to speak with him, players/people like this are special.
Carlos Orr - Added his name to a few of our practices and was a big help with supplying a boost of extra effort to our practices. Sometimes we tend to get lazy out there and it's nice to have a strong cutter motivating your defense.
Hopefully there isn't anyone I missed (doubt that most of these people even read this!), but if I missed you know that every minute you spent helping out the team was definitely appreciated. If anyone knows someone who may be interested in coaching the team next year, let me know.... we would appreciate the extra push that would give us at practice!
