The ultimate frisbee team was started in 2015 and for the past decade, they have competed against challenging and competitive teams during the Spring League. The team practices every Monday and Thursday and usually have two to three games on Saturdays.
Open to any grade, gender, and experience level, the team has four captains, seniors Cormac Edmond and Prady Komirisetti, as well as junior Sai Indurti and sophomore Emmett Allen. On Saturday, May 2, the team played against McAnderson, a combination of McCallum and Anderson, and lost 10 – 9.
“In this game my favorite moment was probably when there was a timeout call and Wilson had two seconds to throw the disc, so he throws up this absolute hammer and I just went up and got it over everyone,”Edmond said. “You can’t win them all obviously. I think it was a really good game, we came back, down three, to take it to universe.”
The other senior captain, Pradyumna Komirisetti, has mixed feelings about the outcome of the game, but is very proud of his team and the effort that everyone put in even though they didn’t win.
“Our energy was really high and we all thought that we were going to win the universe point but unfortunately that didn’t happen,” Komirisetti said. “We all worked our very best and I think that if we all try our very hardest then there’s nothing else we can do. So I’m glad that we all tried our best but in the end I think that this game was definitely winnable.”
Since it is open to any experience level, several players on the team have only been playing for a few months and played their first game on Saturday, March 28.
“Everybody has shown so much improvement, so much dedication, and it’s just so much fun to watch. I’m genuinely just so grateful to get to like captain this group of kids,” Edmond said. “I think at the beginning of the year there was some susceptible throws but now we’re doing go twos, we’re completing throws, we’re not dropping a lot. I think it’s just those little things that we’ve gotten a lot better at, that really have just like jumped us up a tier.”
Everyone on the team has their own personal goals for frisbee. However Edmond’s goal is more about connection and community rather than scoring goals and winning games.
“At the end of the day we’re just playing a sport, you know. Sure winning is cool but I mean this community, I have met so many great people that I have become genuine friends with and I just want that for everyone,” Edmond said. “I want everyone to be able to come out at any skill level and just work and have fun with the people around you.”
When it comes to important skills, Komirisetti feels similarly to Edmond about his goals. Believing that social and community aspects of the game are just as important as fundamentals and plays.
“In the beginning of the year, especially because a lot of new players didn’t know how ultimate frisbee works, we lacked on communication and we didn’t know what plays to call, we didn’t know when to move, we didn’t know when to cut, we didn’t know when to throw,” Komirisetti said. “Now with everyone communicating on the team, we feel more dynamic and connected. Being better at communication also means being better at forgiveness, when someone makes a mistake the whole team is behind them and saying ‘hey you got this, next point.”
The last game of Spring League this year is on May 9. Then the team will play in State on May 16–17, 2026, at Lakeline Park in Cedar Park, Texas, where the team will compete in five to six games over those two days.
