| Frequently tournament names are long, verbose sentences whose meanings could surely be summed up in half the words. This year's wildly popular Ultimate Frisbee tournament took on a new theme: the Campus Kids Exotic Flowers of the World Frisbee Tournament. This year's final was between Curious Calathea Crotalifera and the Benevolent Bermuda Buttercups (this journalist's team). | |

| Mike and Dave, the tournament's organizers, sat in the commentary booth and introduced the teams. |

|
And the teams ran onto the field. |
|
The crowd was ready to see some ultimate played. |

Now, since I was on the field and coaching for most of the game, I'd like to thank Chloe for the following pictures. It's been a good year sports-wise for the web photo crew. |

In the beginning, The Crotalifera went up 3-0. It looked as if the Buttercups, whose theme song "Build Me Up Buttercup" had been lost, were done for. They made a valiant effort, bringing the score to 4-3 Crotaliferas, but because of time constraints, the game was played to five, and the final score was 5-3 in favor of The Crotalifera. |

 |
But as always, it was more about the game than the outcome. |
||
|
And The Crotalifera were presented with the Lord Lisbe cup. |
