The 2017-2018 season saw the Middlebury Lady Pranksters (MLP) coming up with several narrow losses in what turned out to be a competitive, building season after a switch from DI to DIII this year. The graduation of a cohort of superhuman cutters and handlers in May 2017 left MLP with an exciting challenge to fill some big holes. But we know what they say about digging holes – it builds character, and this year fresh faces found plentiful opportunity to improve, and cut and huck their way through spring break tournaments down south and through sectionals and regionals this spring. Heading into the 2018-2019 season, MLP looks forward to more dancing, more loving, another chance to qualify for DIII Nationals, and expects another competitive season from the women of New England ultimate.
