Moo! Flap! Neigh!
Welcome! Here live the high-flying Horsecows. We are Oberlin's open team playing in the Men's D-III Ultimate Division. The Cows are less a team and more of a family; we love our fellow Cows and couldn't imagine life without them. The Cows have a winning pedigree that we continue to build upon each season. Most recently, we placed fifth at the D-III College National Championships in Milwaukee, Wisconsin (our fifth-place finish was the best in the program's history).
However, winning isn't our only passion. Horsecows care just as much about building an open, inclusive community that welcomes all. Since the pandemic, our organization has taken a hard look at our team and the Ultimate community at large. We realized that pleading ignorance was no longer an option and decided to act. With the work of several generations of Horsecow leadership, the team created the Racial Equity Committee (REC). Through REC, the Cows engage in difficult but necessary conversations about the racial and gendered disparities in ultimate frisbee.
For the Cows, it's not just about playing some flatball. We hold each other and this sport we love to the highest standard, and we hope we can help bring about the change that's needed.
