Kunal Talks the Best Basketball out There, the NBA Playoffs,The Dick
Stickey Tongued Frogs advance to Nationals For the second consecutive year, the Women’s Ultimate Frisbee team made it to Nationals. This year, team Co-Captain Sarah Ervin ’11 has high hopes. “I’m really optimistic. I think we’re in an awesome position because we have improved exponentially as a team this year, both as individual players and how we work together as a team,” she said. Ervin emphasized the benefit of most team members remaining on the team for their entire time at Grinnell. “We have a very large and educated senior class which I think it definitely part of [our success],” Ervin said. “Also, we have grown so much as a team over these past four years and I think that has a lot to do with the [senior] class. And additionally, the juniors this year have just being so dedicated, and have spent so much time learning about the sport.” Paige Hill ’12 describes how much more goal oriented the team has become. “Originally, our goal for the season was to qualify for Regionals, so I think at this point we are all prepared to go [to Nationals], enjoy ourselves and play really competitively. We are not going to go say we must win Nationals. However, I think we have a really good shot at it. I wouldn’t be surprised if we won, but it’s not something we are basing our success off of right now,” Hill said. Basically, regardless of how well the team does at Nationals, they will be happy. “If we go and we play our best and we lose every game, we still achieved our goal and played our best while doing it,” Hill said.
