Lisa Niemann #3

Lisa comes from the Seattle home-grown ultimate scene where she played juniors and went on to help University of Washington's Element to the finals of college nationals. The confident handling she showed on the teams of her youth has only developed in her move to club Ultimate. Lisa's favorite part of the game is "throwing the disc, and then catching the disc so I can throw it again."  Her determination to air as many buttery throws to her teammates as possible drives Lisa to be one of Riot's quick-moving handlers, firing past her defender to the point on the field where she can put it.

Lisa holds her Weenie flag high with her love of a dance floor- wherever she may find it- and her choice to use the entire backseat of her car as a field bag.

Look for Lisa's smile as she works to get into position for another beautiful throw in Riot's offense, and then look for her to throw on some party shorts - by Five Ultimate, her employer - to get the work done off the field.
