Ultimate frisbee coming back to Wichita State

Captain John Mercer looks for the disk that captain David Jochems passes through his guard to a teammate during a Wichita State University Ultimate Frisbee Club practice on Sept. 3 at Fairmount Park. This practice was the first of the year for the club.

For the first time in 10 years, ultimate frisbee is coming back to the Wichita State campus.

On Tuesday, the newly founded frisbee team, the Wheaties, held its first practice. The team has two captains, students John Mercer and David Jochems. The Wheaties are coached by Kristoffer Broadley.

Jochems and Mercer’s love for the sport motivated them to organize a team.
