Hi Everyone,

So, I'd said I wasn't going to send out any more emails...I lied. I want to update everyone on all the interesting things that have happened since Nationals. So, without further adieu:

1. B-Mo was featured in an Associated Press (AP) article about ultimate and the way it has developed. This article was picked up by many small and large papers throughout the country (I've recieved calls from Anchorage, Alaska and Davis, CA for example from people saying 'I saw you in my newspaper!') and featured on si.com and foxsports.com (see http://msn.foxsports.com/other/story/3637716 for the article).

2. Zip, our Callahan winner, was in Sports Illustrated's Faces in the Crowd in what I believe was the July 4th issue. See http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/scorecard/faces/2005/07/04/. He's also off to play for Team USA at the World Games in Germany this month (http://www.worldgames2005.de/en/), so good luck Zip! (For more info, also see the UPA website at http://www1.upa.org/index.php...)

3. We're on TV. CSTV (channel 261 on Comcast, also available on DirecTV) is showing our semifinal and final games from this year's Nationals this month. The first showing of our semifinal against Stanford is Friday July 15th at 9pm, while the final first airs on Fri July 29th at 9 as well. If you don't have CSTV, or can't get to a bar or a friend's house to watch, then CSTV should have the videos up on their website after they're shown on the air (i.e. later this month). See http://www.cstv.com/sports/c-ultimate/cs-c-ultimate-body.html. Also, for those who can't get enough (like us players), there are some more videos of many of our games from Nationals -- along with photos -- on the B-Mo team website, thanks to Dan Macarthur's brother Alex. These include a sweet highlight video that is really fun to watch. The website is www.brown.edu/Athletics/Mens_Ultimate/.

That's it for now. Hope everyone is having a great summer.
Colin
