Years of playing with each other on recreational teams made Cramerica’s passing unstoppable. The team played man-to-man defense and were able to stop nearly all of the the Grasshoppers' attempts, ending the game at 14-4.
Daniel Grant, member of the Cramerica team, seemed confident about the end results during half time.
"We're having a good time and we're playing well," said Grant.
His main concern was about the strong wind that kept affecting their throws throughout the evening. But he added that it was an equal disadvantage for both teams, keeping the game fair.
Cramerica dominated in the first half, allowing the Grasshoppers to score only one point.
The Grasshoppers fought hard in the second half, scoring three more points. But their efforts just weren’t enough to make much of a dent in Cramerica’s triumph.
“They had great team work and obviously have played together,” said Brady Anderson, member of the Grasshopper team.
Anderson played in two soccer games prior to the ultimate Frisbee game and still managed to score/assist in half of the Grasshopper’s points. He expressed that he wished he had more energy throughout the game.
Anderson mentioned that his team could work more on being patient during the game. The players would see one of the other team coming to block them and would panic, throwing the disk to the nearest teammate. Many times the other teammate would be heavily guarded by a Cramerica teammate, resulting in a turnover and, usually, another score.All in all, the teams expressed that they enjoyed playing in the ultimate Frisbee game.
“I love doing the long and crazy catches, when you have to dive for them after running really long and hard,” Anderson said.
