MEN'S CROSS COUNTRY
Colby Men's Cross Cou ntry en cou ntered several obstacles i n t h e 2005 season. Despite d isap pointing 3rd and 1 0th-place fin ishes at the State of Maine Meet and N ESCAC Championships, respectively, the Colby harriers placed 1 3th out of 43 in New England Division I l l. At the th i rd meet of the season, Colby lost by one point to rival Bowdoin Col lege, who u ltimately placed 4th in the N ESCAC meet. But the Col by men were plagued by inju ries and i l l nesses for the rest of the season. Sophomore and first time XC ru n ner John Swain led the M u les d uring the second half of the season , with sign ificant contributionsas we l l com i n g f r o m j u n i o r tri-ca pta i n s J eff A l d e n , F red B a i l ey , a n d Dan Vass a l l o, sophomore Smokey Col l i ns, and Rookie of the Year winner J i m H u rder. Swa i n fin ished a team-best 20th at the N ESCAC meet and was sixth at the State of Maine meet. Having no seniors on the squad in 2005 is bittersweet, as this year they com peted a g a i nst m o re sea soned teams. They are, how ever, ret u rn i n g each of t h e i r twenty run ners for t h e 2006 sea son.

The Colby Men's Rugby team made the playoffs for the 3rd consecutive year, led by valiant Senior co-capta ins John Wheelock and Eric Brockmeyer. Although not the strongest rugby team Colby has fielded in recent years, the men were sti l l s uccessful and look back on their season with pride. The highl ight of the fal l was the first game of the playoffs, where they met Bowdoin for the second time d u ring the season. Played on a beautiful fall day, the Colby men soundly defeated the Polar bears on their own pitch. It was the only game of the season when everything "clicked " : defense, rucking, passing, and running. The forwards control led the ba ll well and the backs scored several trys. It was a fun game, one that rem inded many players of the reason why they play rugby. With pure determination the Colby men rose to the cha l lenge and overcame the bigger Bowdoin team, again. It epitom ized Colby Rugby at its best: a flowi ng, skillful game with hard-nosed defense and most importantly a sense of pride that many other teams lack. Colby ruggers are more skilled and have more heart than any team in Maine. With this, they broke Bowdoin's wi l l with fanatical defense and a red hot offense. The team is excellently coached by Bob " Doc" Lau rence and Tony Fletcher. They instructed a strategy that the young and small Colby team used to make the playoffs. 122 Fall Sports

MEN'S ULTIMATE FRISBEE Overal l Colby U ltimate had a very strong season. The Men's U ltimate Team retu rned with the majority of their squad from last year, making it the fi rst season where players knew how their teammates played. I n addition, they a l s o gained s o m e s o l i d fresh men t o keep t h e legacy alive. After coming off a tie for first at their home tournament, Col by Ultimate fi n ished the remai nder of their tou rnaments in the middle of the pack. However, they did enter some higher level tournaments with more "elite" tea ms, and were pleased to see the team's ability to hold their own. The team had many close losses that could have gone either way, an issue of gel l i ng and wanting the win more. The men are looking forward to a competitive season in the spring. The biggest accomplishment this year was losing to the Brown Men's Team (last year's national champions ) 1 31 1 . They went i nto the game saying "we would be content if we could get 1 score on the defending champs." But they scored first, and started to step it up and tried to keep the momentum. They defi nitely held their own, and at the end, lost a little steam because Brown was well conditioned ; the game tru ly showed the Colby team's future potential. The capta ins feel they have left a strong team and a wel l developed program that wi l l hopefully continue t o grow a n d become a n even stronger force i n U ltimate.

The spring season, although short, was very successfu l ! The women first played i n the Paradise Playoffs (Smith ) , and won the whole tou rnament, going u ndefeated ! They destroyed the 8 teams they played, and had pretty close games with Amherst, H a rvard and H a m p s h i re. The next tou rnament, Sectionals, the fi rst tournament i n the national college com petition, was held at C o l by . 7 teams com peted, with the top 2 q ua l ifyi ng for Regionals. Colby played 6 games of pool play and lost only to Dartmouth A, which was n ot a s u rprise as they go to N ationals. Colby beat the other team s pretty handily. As Colby was i n second place, they played D a rtmouth A again for the championship of the tou rnament. They won , again, no su rprise, and C o l by had to play UMF again for 2nd place, the last s pot to regionals. It was a tough game- UMF played much better than they did when the two teams played previously. The M u les had a tough time breaking UM F's zone defense. Also, co-captai n Jamie was i nj u red i n one of the first few poi nts, and was out for the rest of the game. C o l by ended u p losing, wh ich was a huge disappo i ntment, becau se the M u les thought they wou l d not be a ble to attend Reg ionals. H owever, the Tuesday before Reg ionals, the team got a bid to the tournament. N ot entirely s u re how this happened, the M u les managed to scra pe a team together at the last m i n ute . It was n ot the stro ngest Colby tea m , s i nce several of the best players could not make it o n s uch short n otice and J a m i e was sti l l i nj u red. But the team played wel l and learned a lot, even though they l ost all of their games and e nded up 1 5th o ut of 1 6. It was a good experience, especially s i nce it gave the newer players a n oppo rtun ity to play team s that were stronger.
