Our very own plastic chasers particpated in the Ultimate Frisbee Hat Tourney which was held on March 8, 2008 at the Ateneo High School football fields. They spent the whole day playing ultimate together with other college and high school ultimate frisbee players from Ateneo High School, Poveda, Miriam High School, Miriam College, Ateneno de Manila University and University of the Philippines Diliman. Kudos to Ambo, MigSar, Tonichi, Jolas, Vieri, Durrs, Mico and Dennis! To my DiscPlay boys, See you all at the NYTP this summer! and, Jaypee, it's great playing ultimate frisbee with you on the sidelines ulit. haha! http://ranipot.multiply.com/photos/album/94/Ultimate_Frisbee_Hat_Tourney_at_the_Ateneo_High_School_Football_Field Mon, 10 Mar 2008 03:58:25 -0000
