About
The team Prairie Fire was created long ago in the post Go-Dog-Go era of Kansas City Ultimate. While various team members have come and gone, the name has floated around the scene for quite some time. In a strong effort to reinvigorate the Open team and make a concerted effort to qualify for UPA Nationals, the team and the name have gone through a rebirth of sorts.
A powerful influx of savvy, young guns from the University of Kansas HorrorZontals and other area colleges in combination with masterful veterans from KC teams of old has created quite the juggernaut poised to shake things up among the Elite. Watch closely as Prairie Fire climbs their way through the ranks of the Ultimate nobility ... all the way to the top.

"The Plains Indians feared a prairie fire almost as much as anything. They knew that the worst could not be outrun, and Dodge knew it too. [...] The apparent options offered Dodge no escape: stand and be fatally burned; turn and be fatally burned; run and be fatally burned" (Useem 50)
