On a beautiful sunny afternoon in New Britain, CT, the Constitution extended their win streak as they easily defeated the visiting Buffalo Hunters. Before a noisy venue of 750 fans, the High School Day crowd coaxed the Constitution to victory. Our Constitution scored early and maintained a lead holding off a charging Buffalo team ending the first quarter 7-3. Our Connecticut team extended the scoring difference going into half time leading 15-7. Halftime showcased some great competition between 2 area high schools, Chase Collegiate and Hotchkiss. Over the next two quarters, the Constitution continued to pull away and the final score was 30-15. Connecticut scoring was led by Joe ‘Smash’ Anderson with 4, followed by 3 scores each from CJ Ouellette, John Korber, Matt ‘Gomez’ Baum and Austin ‘Highlight’ Raymond. Connecticut (3-1) hosts visiting Rhode Island Rampage next week.
Around the league, The Spinners bypassed the Rampage 24-18, Detroit outlasted the previously undefeated visiting Revolution 21-19 and the Cranes continued their domination of the AlleyCats 37-29.

On a partly cloudy afternoon in May, the much anticipated rematch of the Spinners verses Constitution took place in New Britain CT. It was obvious from the first pull that this was going to be a back and forth contest. At the end of the first quarter, Connecticut led 7-6 and the teams were tied 14-14 going into halftime. As the game moved into the fourth quarter, the teams continued trading scores and Connecticut led by one. In the fourth quarter, Connecticut dominated the scoring and pulled away to a final score of 29-23. John Korber led the scoring for Connecticut with 7 points and Brent Anderson scored another 5.
Around the league, Rhode Island held off the Buffalo challenge 20-19, and the Alleycats scratched out their first win of the season besting the Mechanix 22-13. The Sunday contest saw the Cranes outlast the Mechanix in the Silverdome.

Come on out and cheer on your Connecticut Constitution as we host the unbeaten Philadephia Spinners. We are looking to calm that Philly Twister with an air and land assault by our players. In addition, we will rock the house with our fans that day.

On an overcast and threatening and sometimes rainy evening in Philadelphia, the Constitution took on their Divison rival to the South. In a spirited hard fought contest, the Spinners outlasted the constant rebound of our Constitution. The final tally of 22-16 does not nearly present how close the game was for the previous 3 and 1/2 quarters of play. Our team traded many scores with the avenging Philadelphia team and remained within 2 points for most of the game. The Connecticut players look forward to the rematch on our turf on May 5. That promises to be another great spectacle.
In other action on Saturday, the Bluegrass Revolution continued their winning ways as they bested the Indianapolis Alleycats 20-18, while the Rampage published their first victory of the young season against the Columbus Cranes 22-19.
Rhode Island continued their winning ways besting Detroit 26-24 on Sunday in the first ever Silverdome Ultimate match up.

We are the Connecticut Constitution and we are a professional Ultimate team representing Connecticut in the American Ultimate Disc League (theAUDL). We are excited to bring this sport to the professional level and to present the elite players of the game. In our inaugural season, the AUDL will consist of 8 teams located in the Northeastern United States and will include representation in Philadelphia PA, Providence RI, Buffalo NY, Columbus OH, Detroit MI, Indianapolis IN, and Lexington KY.
The sport of Ultimate has been growing exponentially in popularity and participation over the last several years. The roots of this sport began and continue today as a competitive, fast paced club sport in many colleges and universities and have expanded into both college and post college regional and national tournaments. The sport has also mushroomed into high schools and middle schools athletic programs under the leadership of the national supporting organization, USA Ultimate. In addition, many states have formed competitive and recreational leagues, including our own Connecticut Ultimate Club.
The Connecticut Constitution promises to deliver a family friendly and affordable entertainment experience for its fans. The Constitution will host 8 weekend home games during its first season of play, spanning the months of April through July, with our opening day home game planned for May 5, 2012. The first season will round out in mid July with division playoffs followed by the first American Ultimate Championship game to be played in the Silverdome in Detroit MI on August 11, 2012.
