Team Biography

Fatal is the Franciscan University of Steubenville’s men’s ultimate team, formed in 2013. The team’s name came to be through the inspiration of a friend of those who founded the team — Neal Albert Rylatt. Neal was an ultimate player and would have undoubtedly helped in the formation and progression of the team. However, he contracted leukemia and passed away on May 4, 2012. His nickname was “Fat Al,” which the team later adopted as its name and his initials and number (NAR 16) on our crest. Fatal also plays in honor of another student who passed away before getting to compete on the team — Max Von Arx; his initials and number also appear on the Fatal crest (MVA 22).
