SOL goes to Midnight Dream



I rounded up my SOLmates and took them down to a fun tourney to kick off the summer. Midnight Dream in Whitewater, WI.

As teammates from all over WI and MN showed up...some early, some on time, some late....we went 2-1 on Friday night, ending play in the wee hours of the a.m. On Saturday, we went an undefeated 3-0, winning two hard games (vs. Luther/Luther-alum and Kablammo) to win the championship for the second year in a row.

Congrats and thanks to all the SOL players/alum who made it possible!


SOL Plays Club

Going through SOL withdrawls? You can catch many of us at club tourneys throughout the summer and fall!

Robyn Fennig (#44), Anna Hettler (#2), Jaime Glader (alum) Pat Niles (Coach) are all playing co-ed with Dragon Thrust from the Twin Cities, MN. Martha Harris (#10) and Brit Gartner (#11) are playing co-ed with Oh Boy! from the Twin Cities, MN. Taylor Jenkins (#42) is organizing a co-ed team in Austin, MN. Jess Haller (#1) and Katelyn Mater (alum) will be playing with NURD again for the series.

Robyn's also organizing the Eau Cleazy Powerbottom for another summer. The ECPB won Midnight Dream in Whitewater, WI for the second consecutive year! We're still looking for more SOLmates to play at Mad Disc On (August 1-2) in Madison, WI.

Many of our players and former players are picking up with teams, such as Kablammo, Madtown Boozehounds, Spirit Fowl, etc. for local tourneys.

Lots of our girls are playing summer leagues in their hometowns and organizing pick-up too!

Look for some hot pink and black on an ultimate field near you!

P.S. Best of luck to a fast recovery for Hannah Jones (alum) who had ACL surgery a few weeks back. Your SOLmates love you!
