Tryouts Are Over

Scinny is over, Enigma went 3-4 and finished fifth. With that, the tryout process is over. We thank everyone who came out and made our decisions difficult, it really was tough picking the last few spots. We had great turnouts over the course of the last couple of months, and hopefully everyone had fun even if they didn’t make the roster. Please continue to come out to practice if you are interested. We’d love to help you become a better ultimate player and spend more time with all of you. Also, if anyone gets injured or simply can’t make a tournament we may be calling on some of our practice squad players to step in. Plus, if you ordered a jersey, we will still get that to you when they come in. If anyone still owes money, please get that in asap.

Those who are on the roster, congratulations! We are ready to get serious about the season ahead of us. Motown Throwdown and The Three Ring Rally are about a month away, so we have plenty of time to continue improving. Get your final roster dues ($20) to me so that we can pay for the Series.

I’ll announce the roster below, but first a little recap of Scinny. We came in with expectations to compete for the Golden Gnome, and this weekend Enigma did a lot of competing for sure. Losing by 2 points in each of the first three games, at a tryout tournament, was frustrating. Backs against the wall though, Enigma was able to get a win to play for the gnome on Sunday. This was short lived, however, as we weren’t able to pull out the win over Castle. In the second game on Sunday, Enigma entered the 5th place bracket and won two games to capture 5th place. After all of that, it’s easy to see that the team has a lot to work on but it’s going to be a lot of fun to get this team where it needs to be come September.
