River Campus Classic 2023
The annual Ultimate Frisbee River Campus Classic (RCC) was held this past weekend (February 25-26). This was the largest field of teams we ever hosted with a total of 12 boys and 6 girls teams. Teams came from Alabama, Georgia andKentucky. The weather was dismal Saturday and cleared some for Sunday’s rounds
but that doesn’t stop Ultimate!

The girls field hosted Paideia Groove, Independence Flight, Paideia JV, Pi, and a new team from Hillsboro High here in Nashville and, of course, USN Brutal Grassburn(BG). BG girls started strong, winning over Paideia JV 13-0. Our second game was against Independence Flight. The girls fought hard and came out with a 9-6 win giving us a 2-0 start. We then played a reseed game against the powerful Paideia Groove. Their speed and energy helped them to a 12-2 win against BG. That ended Saturday’s play.

Sunday began the Championship Round of play. Because we won the pool play in our division Saturday, we drew a first round bye and played the PI team from Kentucky. The game was back and forth and, unfortunately, we lost on universe point 9-8. However, we learned a lot of valuable lessons to take into our next tournament. Play continued with the talented Paideia Groove earning the Championship trophy for 2023!

Shout out to the girls’ team for a great effort at our first tournament. Working as a team, each individual played hard and exemplified the true Spirit of the Game. This earned them the Spirit Award for RCC 2023. We continue to work hard and show improvement each practice. Our next tournament (YULA) is being held in Arlington, VA at the end of March!

GO BRUTAL!!!!!
