Melee placed 5th overall at Music City Mash-Up, winning in universe point against Wisconsin Bella Donna.

Six of us pulled up to the fields straight from Austin, TX to play the first game of the tournament against UNC-W. Unfortunately, our team played poorly and lost 8-13.

Our next game was against Iowa State. The game stayed fairly close throughout. We ended up losing 11-13.

Our last pool play game was against Bella Donna. They scored the first point and took half. The game was close throughout until the end when we went on a 4 point run for the win. 13-9.

The last game of the day was against Yale in a crossover game. We won 13-5.

We played Iowa in the morning, staying up or tied the whole game until the end when Iowa pulled ahead winning 12-10. We played Rice next, winning 15-4. Then a re-match against Wisconsin gave us another close game as we won by one after losing a big early lead.

Overall Melee showed a lot of strength, despite not playing our best throughout the tournament. Our next tournament is 2 weekends from now where we will see a lot of challenging competition. I’m excited to see where we’re headed with our team this year!

Melee will be competing at Music City Mash-Up in Nashville this weekend!

Second mini camp this weekend for Melee! This means no practice Monday.

Weekend schedule
Saturday 8a-12pm
Sunday 10am-1pm

Music City Mash-Up is in less than 2 weeks! Get pumped!

Currently working on updating the roster page. Melee’s information should be up-to-date now, but still working on Mayhem’s. Looking at how many new players Mayhem’s gained this semester makes me so happy . And it’s so great to have so many young players. Melee is so old, we will need younger players to step up and fill in roles as the rest of us graduate.

Next week we have minicamp. More updates on that as we find out more.

Melee broke seed by 4, finishing 9th overall this weekend.  Check out Score Reporter for results.

Saturday we started out with a win against Humboldt State, breaking seed. We played UCSB next, falling behind as they went on a 6 point run. We returned a 3 point run, but struggled to score in the endzone, losing 15-8. We were able to finish the day strong by defeating Claremont and UCLA, the one seed in our pool. Because of point differences, we finished 3rd in our pool.

Sunday we started out playing Colorado, a big regional competitor. We came out wanting to avenge last year’s regional loss and took half 8-2. Our play didn’t let up the second half as we won 15-5. Next, we played UCSD Psychos in a windy game. Both teams ran hard and the game was close at half, but we closed out the second half, winning 13-5 in hard cap. Our next game was a crossover game for the championship bracket against Sonoma State. Sonoma had a good run, taking an early lead. They were able to hold onto the lead as we fought to close the gap. We lost the game in hard cap, scoring the last point to lose by one.

Monday morning we faced Humboldt State again. They scored quickly to take the lead, but we took the lead after tying the score at 3s and never looked back. 15-9 Texas. For our final game we played Carleton College. It was an aggressive, physical game that stayed close throughout. We won in hard cap 12-9. Our defense and sideline proved crucial in our final game.

Throughout the tournament Melee kept our heads up and played hard, regardless of who we were playing or the score. Our positive attitude and confidence in each other as teammates and friends enabled us to have the strongest showing at Presday in years. We are excited to see how much further we will progress throughout the season, with two more pre-series tournaments to look forward to.

A big thanks to all of our supporters!

Thanks to everyone who came out to Clark last Saturday. For you first-timers, hope it got you hooked on Ultimate!
