The things I do for a T-shirt

Year one: The Fresh
I thought it would be fun to throw an ultimate Frisbee team together my freshman year so I got a bunch of guys that lived in the dorms with me to play.
Result: Championship game, 2nd place finish... no t-shirt :`(


Year two: The Fresh Reunion Tour
We got the guys that were back from their missions and put together another team. We were missing some key players but picked up a few others.
Result: Semi-finals, 4th place finish... no t-shirt :`(

Year three: The Fresh Elite
We put the team together with some additions and had a great season.
Result: Championship game, Heartbreaking loss, 2nd place finish... no t-shirt :`(


Year four: The Fresh Elite
Last year we had an awesome team, even had matching t-shirts for games, and have a sweet highlight video of the season.
Result: Semi-finals, 3rd place finish... no t-shirt :`(

Year five: The Fresh Elite
This will be most of the team's last year so we made the most of it.
Result: Championship game, 1st place finish... Sweet t-shirt!!!


This T-shirt has eluded us for over 6 years and we finally got it, so when you see me wearing it way too much, you'll know why.

Some of my best friends at BYU are because of this team. It is sad that it might be over. Some of the team (including me) will be around one more year but we will have to appeal the NCAA for a 6th year of eligibility... If granted, I will be posting next year about our repeat.
Here I am sporting my sweet shirt. I'll bring it home for Thanksgiving so many of you can see it in person.



And here is a highlight video of last year's team.

  1. Yesssss! I remember watching you guys your very first year. I thought you were super good back then so I imagine by now you are, well, champions! I would hope that after 5 years you'd get that t-shirt! Speaking of T-shirts... remember that t-shirt you brought me home from Brazil with the girl on the front with the yarn braids? I cannot bring myself to wear it, yet I cannot bring myself to get rid of it. It has been sitting in my drawer for these past 3 years and I smile every time I look at it. Oh the power of a simple t-shirt! So sad I won't be able to see your awesome shirt in person:(
