By Amy Hatch | September 20, 1995

"The game was an early indication that we can be very successful," Co-Captain Dan Kalafatas '96 said.

Frisbee club in pursuit of 'ultimate' adventure

By Mary Ellen Moore | August 4, 1995

This summer the men's and women's ultimate frisbee teams have combined forces to form one coed team. The teams are usually composed of 15 women and 30 men, but in the summer 20, five of whom are women compete. Summer co-captain Chris Carbone '97 said ultimate frisbee practice is not too different in the summer, although some hot afternoon he plans to take the teamto the river to play canoe disc instead of their regular method of practicing. Ultimate frisbee is a club sport at Dartmouth, which means the teams compete in intercollegiate tournaments, but the College gives them little money, according to co-captain Amy Stein '97. "Our biggest expense is tournament fees, which are usually about $50-$100 each and the College covers that," she said. But in order to cover other costs, such as transportation, the teams have their own fundraising activities.
