Do you want to part of history and another “HBCU first”? Are you a good all-around athlete who likes high-paced, action-filled sports? Do you want to put your skills and the 麻豆视传媒画映Av brand up against the likes of UNC, NCSU, and Duke on the playing field?
If so, the sport of collegiate Ultimate might be for you. Ultimate, formerly known as Ultimate Frisbee, is a fast-growing, non-contact sport played with flying discs with the objective of scoring points by passing a disc to a teammate into the opponent鈥檚 end zone. The Triangle area of North Carolina is rich with Ultimate talent. The University of North Carolina (UNC) men鈥檚 and women鈥檚 Ultimate teams are both defending national champions. The area also boasts two professional teams that play in Durham. High-profile Ultimate matches have even been broadcast on ESPN.
