New York PoNY vs DC Truck Stop | Men's Semifinal 2022 USAU National Championships 

the speed they play at is insane

2:30, Rowan inside break throw turn 2:40, Crouching Rowan hidden poaching 2:49, MKB deep cut 3:03, Basic out-under cut with a fake and a continuation of the same cut 3:14, the continuation of above two cuts doesn't work on the under, but Jurek gets an inside shot on the slash/clear because of a poaching defender 3:35, breakside BOS continuation cut happens as soon as disc is _thrown_ (rather than caught). 3:41, Jurek continuation a belly cut? 3:44, Malks' cut from stack to continue from Jurek. Has a nice juke fake. Nice break throw. Did MKB do anything wrong? Footwork? It's a breakside cut so does it even matter? 4:10, Breakside movement! 4:18, cutter shut down by PONY #3, who didn't bite on the fake, the jump cut Randolph move combo. He's completely synchronized. His feet hit the ground at the same time, sending him in the same direction as the cutter. 4:38, Rowan's continuation on this reset is shut down by Pony #47, who doesn't bite on the juke fake. 4:44, but the goal looks rather easy with a cut from the stack into the break side behind a flat mark. The defender on the cutter is instantly out of position because the cut is to the break side and they are positioned to cover both the open and break, but that leaves them one step behind on both. 5:08, Mickle breaks the mark 6:14, Rowan's vertical *6:17, A give-go looked off in favour of an inside break that leads to a goal. Also an example of two cutters cutting at the same time but it not being a problem. They use each other rather than cutting each other off. *7:29, Rowan deep strike off pull set to brick. Defender on the wrong side arguably, only thinking of covering the inside break throw, but then the disc goes to the open side handler reset and he's way out of position. *7:55, such an easy bh inside break... (Mark flashes into the backhand side, but as he moves back to cover the flick side, Garvey steps the other way and there's 2 yards of separation between the mark and the disc.) *!***8:39**, handler reset to backfield, break side around. *Notice the continuation cuts.* First it's the FOS, but when that's looked off, it's the BOS. It's not a give-go. The first continuation cut being on the break side allows the handler who just threw to reset back to the stack through the open side without clogging. Also note that the BOS defender is backing the cutter. That makes the under very very open. Even though he leaving something free on the open side, he's at least denying the deep strike from a very big threat (like 6'6" big). 9:18, Garvey with another bh inside break. 9:29, BOS continuation to open side (compare timing with BOS continuation to break side at 3:35) *9:58, Rowan gets his cut called off by teammate. How was that communicated? ("Mine"?) 10:26 has a good example of two things we talked about this week: knowing who's turn it is to cut (pecking order, just go, communicate?) and attacking the back of the mark then going to the open side (Boxley does this well) 11:04, TS 10 gets a little open on open side with juke fake against Pony 81. *11:21, TS 10 stays in the active space trying to get open. IMO he takes a little too much time. But maybe it was fine because he knew he'd get open again? Also seems like a tough spot to guard, as I think he was in the end zone if he went under or deep. (Compare this to D coverage by TS 21 at 7:12) 12:00, Pony Pink headband guy gets quite open on deep strike from 2nd in stack because of big poach by TS 30 12:32, Open side cut shut down initially. But he gets it as a reset. 13:05, Pony player cutting deep smokes TS 33 on this cut. Defender was beat every which way. (The cut was out, under, out.) He kept committing to each cut but that allowed the cutter to change direction and get open *13:40, Rowan's FOS cut shut down, but 52 gets wide open from FOS following Rowan's clear. Randolph turns his head the wrong way and cutter attacks opposite direction exactly as he does it. 13:43, BOS continuation open side timing. 14:27, Garvey's handler strike. 34:34, Rowan deep cut shut down (an example of attempting to change speed?) But following deep but by Jurek is "too fuckin' fast" for Jagt, lol.

Jimmy was tremendous in the backfield, had several superb long assists, made a fee points along the way, but that throw-away at 10-11 was very costly.

thanks for this angle. def an epic game. and kudos to all for playing after that crazy collision.

One of the best games of ultimate ever played

that hitstick was the nastiest accident i've seen in sports. 1:56

That throw at 14:31................ WOW

Has anyone checked to verify that Jimmy Mikkel's throwing arm is not bionic?

What’s up with those pony jerseys? The quack quack quack chant 😂

Harper Garvey looks so steady. Very underrated player

@1:30 - bad marking. Everyone knows Mickle is gonna shimmy fake backhand, then throw that flick. He doesn't even open his hips at all. Don't bite on that! @1:40 watch Garvey's weight transfer here; he's so heavy on that plant foot that he staggers out of it. That's where the power comes from, and the wrist can just be butter. Smooth. @2:30 count how long McDonnell holds the disc. Now count how many fakes he throws. Wonder why Davis is all over that under? 🤔 @2:52 he got it back tho. Look how aggressive Rowan is getting to the spot first, so he can box out and go up with good position 💪🏾 @3:30 compare to @2:30 - Roy mixes in so many quick fakes that by the time he releases that backhand break, his mark is completely flat-footed. @5:10 coulda been a point block... STOP BITING ON THE SHIMMY!!! HE DOESN'T EVEN SWITCH GRIPS. HIS LEFT HAND IS PLAYING THE HARMONICA.

My mans looking back at the disc with no clue who’s by him and just accelerates in the direction he wasn’t even looking -_- cmon 14

14:30

Why did Jurek get blue card at minute 35:00?
