Friday

While the varsity baseball game rained at Whitman was cancelled due to rain, the Ballard ultimate frisbee teams dominated their opponents on the muddy frisbee fields.

The boys team was lead by junior Jake Lemmen with 4 goals and 3 assists. Senior Kenny Lane had 3 goals and 5 hand blocks. Senior Moses Goldfarb and sophomore Adam Choi chipped in 3 goals each.

"The ladies played awesome last night.  We worked really hard on our man defense and really saw some improvements, and we exercised much more patience on the goal line," said coach Carmella Vizza.
"While our senior and more veteran players always bring their A game, I was most impressed by our newer players and underclassmen." 
Mareya Welsh and Maddie Gilbert, both new to the team, made some great catches on offense to help the team keep possession of the disc. 
Sophomore Juliette Birkner had a break out game with an aerial defensive block, and she scored the winning goal with a diving catch in the endzone.
