Ignite Ultimate

***2 YEAR VET*** Name: Raphael Dumont Number: 91 Class: 2k25 Position: Exuberant Fav throw: Backhand huck Pregame snack: Hummus Pump up song: High Hopes by Panic! At The Disco Can’t live without: Layout Ds Most likely to: Spike the disc Idol: Junior Clash character: Berserker Headshot by @derek.hodgson.photography Mr. Nonchalant is the calm and collected player of Ignite, until he gets to spike the disc. Spamming inside flick breaks and getting constant layout d’s all the time are just a couple of Raph’s many skills that he brings to Ignite. On the sideline, a Raph smile is considered a mythical pull and something everyone strives to witness at least once a season. All in all, he is an amazing teammate and makes all of us better. We aren’t sure what we’d all do without Raph

***3 YEAR VET*** Name: Jeremy Fletcher Number: 39 Class: 2k25 Position: Gyatt Fav throw: Lefty Scoober Pregame snack: Trail mix Pump up song: Luxurious x Be Your Girl by VIP, archangel Can’t live without: Ilusha Most likely to: Never heal Idol: Edward Beard Paris Clash character: Elite Barbarian 2 Headshot by @derek.hodgson.photography Bringing big hops, weak throws and lots of trail mix, Jeremy is a force to be reckoned with on the field. Unfortunately for us, Jeremy has many hard counters including hot tubs (MY LUMBAR), booty shorts and Charlie’s metal water bottle. While this keeps him sidelined, he remains a powerhouse leading all the cheers and coaching us to victory. Although all of us on Ignite will be sad to see him leave at the end of the season, we’ll love to see him walk away

***3 YEAR VET*** Name: Simon Tremblay Number: 76 Class: 2k25 Position: LTIR Fav throw: Deep flick Pregame snack: Dried mangoes Pump up song: Where the Wild Things Are by Luke Combs Can’t live without: Country music Most likely to: Miss the full season 😢 Idol: Physio therapist Clash character: Giant Headshot by @derek.hodgson.photography A lot of ignite has never actually seen the myth of a man play but have only heard urban legends of Simon Tremblay. After putting up absolutely insane numbers on the Ignite 2024 d-line, Simon was injured at Nats and hasn’t been cleared to play ever since (sad). Although he hasn’t been on the field, Simon has showed his relentless support by showing up to practice and has been putting up huge numbers once again, just in the alternate categories (high fives, up calls and compliments given

***2 YEAR VET*** Name: Liam Carrière Number: 45 Class: 2k25 Position: Bail to Jack Beech Fav throw: Instant lil bail Pregame snack: Farmers wrap Pump up song: Illegal by PinkPantheress Can’t live without: Brawl stars Most likely to: Beat Mike Tyson in a fight Idol: A sunflower Clash character: Mini pekka Headshot by @derek.hodgson.photography Liam may not be gifted with the height genetics but gets big things done on the field. Don’t underestimate his, ability he’ll surprise you with his 6🤷7 inch vertical. As a second year veteran on ignite, it’s a wonder how Liam has failed to learn how to flick, and instead putting all his stats into his vert. Nonetheless, he’s proven himself with his out of pocket defensive plays, impressive turfs and extreme nonchalantness

***2 YEAR VET*** Name: Théo Chandler-Nantel Number: 22 Class: 2k26 Position: UPI lawnmower  Fav throw: Anything layout inducing Pregame snack: Caffeine Pump up song: Till I Collapse by Eminem, Nate Dogg Most likely to: Get lost in his own neighborhood Can’t live without: Wind Idol: Vivian Harvey Clash character: Little Prince Headshot by @derek.hodgson.photography Since being hired as UPI’s lawnmower in 2022, Théo keeps the field fresh by releasing every throw below the ground (and occasionally turfing it), fitting in as an o-line handler perfectly. This little munchkin will also go to all the lengths to get up the line on you. Legend has it he tried to run through Tristan’s legs at practice one time and he didn’t even have to duck. Most of the time uses this size (or lack thereof) to his advantage, being able to sneak around the field when his opponents are distracted. While Théo is a small guy on the field, his personality his large on the sidelines hyping everyone up constantly and taking a commanding presence alongside his mom, assuring the tent is always in order and constantly comparing us to Wicked’s tent

***2 YEAR VET*** Name: Ilusha Andreev Number: 25 Class: 2k25 Position: JCC Fav throw: Flick huck to Jeremy Pregame snack: Watermelon Pump up song: Young Black and Rich by Melly Mike Can’t live without: Muffy Most likely to: Go 100% in warmup Idol: Owen Lumely Clash character: Dark Prince Headshot by @derek.hodgson.photography Ilusha may be the hardest working fella you will ever meet, but not if you don’t get him his daily 500mg of caffeine first. When he gets his fix, he’s a dominant cutter on the o-line, making endless jab cuts all point (literally his only move). Although Ilushka is on the o-line, every catch he makes is a full extension run-through d for some reason (explains his 50% drop rate). Unfortunately, the 50% that he does catch still usually ends up in a turnover due to his lack of throwing ability (other than his full field flick hucks of course). Since he doesn’t play clash, we have yet to discover what our russian spy does off the field

***2 YEAR VET*** Name: Connor Seaborn Number: 61 Class: 2k25 Position: Brainrotted Fav throw: Breakside Pregame snack: Anything Pump up song: Brain Stew by Greenday Can’t live without: TRizz Most likely to: Sit off for a different injury every point Idol: Coach Geofford Clash character: Firecracker Headshot by @derek.hodgson.photography Fresh off leading the St. Mats team to yet another unsuccessful season, Seaborn has returned to Ignite for his final year. Unfortunately for us, Connor has hardly learned anything, still throwing his breakside flick skyballs every other throw. This skill combined with his extreme lack of ankle health has him on the sidelines 90% of the time, joining Simon (RIP Simon). Thankfully Seaborn is a pretty good guy to have around on the sideline though, cracking endless 67 jokes to Habib. Although when he is on, Connor’s a dominant force on half of the field (bro only plays left mid), getting many blocks for the d-line

***2 YEAR VET*** Name: Sammy Ten Den Number: 35 Class: 2k26 Position: Right bench Fav throw: Out of bounds pull Pregame snack: Water and banana Pump up song: Drive By by Train Can’t live without: Sleeping on long car drives Most likely to: Fall asleep while doing homework (slide 3) Idol: Dart Goblin Clash character: Mega minion Headshot by @derek.hodgson.photography Sammy is a versatile player on Ignite this year, filling every role from o-line starter to d-line grinder to right bench. Being the wild card means he has all the skills in the bag. He will leave you needing a map, he can get wayyy up there and he can throw really really well! (2 truths 1 lie). While he is already an amazing player, watch out for the day Sammy Ten Den stops spending 12 hours on youtube every day (don’t hold your breath

***2 YEAR VET*** Name: Jack Beech Number: 01 Class: 2k25 Position: Robot Fav throw: High release backhand Pregame snack: Air Pump up song: The Wheels on the bus by Wheels on the bus Can’t live without: Nachos Most likely to: Know every NoBo result ever Idol: Andrew Slobodian Clash character: Royal Ghost Headshot by @derek.hodgson.photography What would we all do without Beech. His charming smile lights up the entire team every practice. On the field, Jack’s robotic program consists of 2 things; spam OI flicks and high release backhands. Already being quick and shifty, we are terrified of the thought of how fast he could run if his strides weren’t half a meter long. Although he is deemed one of Ignite’s most mysterious players, once you crack his shell Jack is an awesome guy to be around, especially when he just finished leading his adult rec team Jack Beech and the Beechers to yet another win

***ROOKIE*** Name: Malcolm Ouellet  Number: 51 Class: 2k25 Position: Tomato Fav throw: Anything that is open Pregame snack: Crackers and hummus Pump up song: Kickstart My Heart by Mötley Crüe Can’t live without: Food Most likely to: Win a scratch ticket Idol: Kyle Moore Clash character: Rune Giant Headshot by @derek.hodgson.photography Part of the St-Fx gang, he’s the only one that can ACTULLY throw which is quite remarkable considering what group he’s in. He just recently buzzed so you might not tell the difference between our other redhead Jack as they both look like leprechauns. You might catch him digging up the dirt around the fields. Not to worry, he’s just looking where to hide his pot of gold. Other than his activities as a redhead, Malcom is a great player on our o-line as one of the handlers

***ROOKIE*** Name: Jack Heard Number: 27 Class: 2k25 Position: End of the rainbow Fav throw: Bail push pass Pregame snack: Sunflower seeds Pump up song: Daylight by Drake Can’t live without: Sleep Most likely to: Pay his tournament fees in gold coins Idol: Tristan Hodgson Clash character: Boss Bandit Headshot by @derek.hodgson.photography Jack may have red hair, but he sure doesn’t act like it. Although he keeps a cool head, his cuts are still blazing (😃), basically getting free yards for the o-line every time. It’s too bad Jack has auto-bail permanently turned on, losing all the yards he gets immediately dishing it back to Charlie. That is, when he’s there. It is a rare sighting to see Jack at practice (especially when a rainbow appears) and sometimes he vanishes in the middle of a point … but nope that’s just him dusting you deep for another o-line point
