This former editor and recent Ultimate Club Nationals champion is happy to see an article about Ultimate! There's also pick-up on Thursday nights (6:30 to 9:30 p.m.) at Las Positas College in Livermore.

(see DW's Parkour article to get this inside joke).

Maybe Emily West appears somewhere in this link to "Best Ultimate Frisbee Plays of 2008"?
