According to Urban Dictionary, Chris can be defined as “a really hot teddy bear”. I can confirm that there is not a more perfect description of this beautifully sculpted man with those chill “just road-tripped from Seattle” vibes and consistent ability to make you laugh (as long as he’s had his coffee). I can’t say I’ve had the pleasure of being Chris’s date to a frisbee formal, but maybe his twin sister will take me to one, and that’s gotta be pretty close to the real thing right?
Given that Chris is now in the middle of his third season on NUT, you might expect that Chris’s favorite sport is ultimate frisbee. However, judging upon the time he dedicates to his craft, his favorite sport is actually stationary yoga. I’d like to see him start wearing a resistance band like a headband so his defining feature of his hair won’t be whether or not he chose to shave that day.
When not blowing out his knees on D-Line, Healthy Chris can be found in his closet-sized room in the Frisbee House living like some sort of west coast Harry Potter or imprisoned inside Tech, doomed to a Sisyphean eternity of industrial engineering group meetings. You might also find him inside a dining hall, actively engaging in identity theft for a free meal or borrowing my cleats because I guess he doesn’t know his own shoe size?
I was truly lucky to live two doors down from Chris in 2019, for without him to invite me to come to the fall quarter mini tournament (roll Team Clamps by the way), I doubt I would be the author of this bio. I am super pumped to keep playing frisbee with my boy, and whether he’s out hitting his laser sharp cuts for unders or hyping up people from the sideline, Chris will continue to be a vital legume in our big NUT family.
