Coach Wu hands the disc to Swiderski and Schnurr

2010-02-04T04:44:00.000-08:00

Dear Team Members,

I want to thank you for your years of commitment to this team which has been the joy of my life (behind God and family) for the past 10 years. With increased committee responsibilities and my Fri-Sun pastoral commitments in Pendleton Co I have come to the conclusion that my time as coach has come to an end.

I have thoroughly enjoyed starting the program here. Some of the best players in KY have come through our school. Highlights have been going to the 2003 Jr. National Tournament (before the UPA went to a Easterns and Westerns format) placing 12th in Birmingham, AL; 2005 Jr. Club Mixed Nationals in Blaine, MN where we placed 3rd and won the spirit award; qualifying to play at the HS Eastern Invitational Tournament in 2007 and multiple state titles. Also, coaching Lee Richardson who was the first KY student to make the Jr. National Team was a very proud and humbling moment. Lee caught the first score at the 2008 Jr. World Ultimate Tournament scoring against Great Britain. Team USA won the gold that year. The most satisfying part of this journey has been watching all the players learn and grow and form relationships with other teams through this region. I will never forget the kids who came early in the morning, or the ones who came to practice just out of the sheer joy and love for the sport. I look to serve Lexington Catholic in new ways and I am still committed to seeing the Ultimate Frisbee program thrive in new hands. Coach Swiderski and alumnus Barb Schnurr will continue the program in the 2010-11 season.

Peace and blessings,

Coach David Wu

2007-05-20T18:45:00.001-07:00

What a weekend. LC brought the youngest smallest squad (no seniors) out of the field of 16, playing some tough games -- almost upsetting a couple high seeds. We went 2-4 and tied for 13th. Junior leadership was present from Lee, Sam and Aaron. Ethan, Charlie, Chris W., Chris L., Kevin, Will, Trip, Michael, Tammy and Yoonwoo rounded out the roster. Everyone contributed and it was a good spirited fun time. Thanks to Alex for supporting the team and doing the bulk of the video-taping. Thanks to Shane and Jim for their coaching and presence. And thanks to the parents: Wayne, Rich, Mary Beth, Tim, Al, John, Carolyn and Jay for cheering us on, taking pictures, running water and everything else. The end of the year cookout will be at Sam and Kevin's on June 1st at 6pm. Bring a side dish. Families are invited.

Click here for all the buzz about Easterns. One blogger seeded us 7th. Also, here are the rules for the Ultimate Frisbee video reel contest. I made a 2 minute highlight video from over the last year. Let's remember our goals over the last year, Getting Stronger/Getting Faster/Team Strength - Chemistry/Timing and Spacing/Spirit and Fairness/Play as Worship - Selfless, sacrificial play. Start visualizing and thinking about gametime situations. Reread the 11th ed rules, review the plays and sets. Take care of your bodies and minds as we draw near to the big event. Pray that we can do our very best at Easterns. Let's make our school and state proud.
