Mel Friedel

Mel Friedel aka the flesh-eating bacteria girl, hails from Lower Merion, PA. Mel has played Ultimate throughout high school and joined the team during her freshmen year. Although she hasn't been able to play in a tournament yet, (thanks to flesh-eating bacteria, an ACL tear, and multiple concussions) she is a cherished and an incredibly supportive member of this team. We can't wait to see her kick butt on the field this year.
