Cincinnati Revolution
The Cincinnati Revolution were a professional ultimate disc team based in Cincinnati, Ohio who competed in the American Ultimate Disc League (AUDL), now known as the Ultimate Frisbee Association, from 2012 to 2016. The Revolution played in the AUDL's Western Division in 2012 and in the Midwestern/Midwest Division from 2013 until their dissolution in 2016. They played their home games as the Bluegrass Revolution in 2012 at Henry Clay High School's Jack Bell Stadium in Lexington, Kentucky, and as the Cincinnati Revolution from 2013 to 2016 at the University of Cincinnati's Sheakley Athletics Center.
The Revolution were one of the AUDL's eight charter teams, and their lone AUDL playoff appearance was in 2012. The team's colors were black and green, and its logo was a fleur-de-lis.
With the growing popularity of the sport of ultimate, the AUDL was formed in 2012 by Josh Moore with eight teams spanning the East Coast and Midwest. The Bluegrass Revolution were one of those eight inaugural teams, and they were initially composed of ultimate disc players from Kentucky and the surrounding area.In the 2012 season, the Revolution played in the AUDL's Western Division alongside the Detroit Mechanix, the Indianapolis AlleyCats, and the Columbus Cranes.
After starting the 2012 season 3–0 with wins over Indianapolis, Detroit, and Columbus, the Revolution finished second in the Western Division behind Indianapolis with a record of 9–7. In the 2012 AUDL playoffs, the Revolution played against the AlleyCats for the Western Division title but lost 24–20.
After the 2012 season, the Revolution relocated from Lexington to Cincinnati, Ohio. Despite their strong play in 2012, attendance at the Revolution's home games in Lexington was minimal throughout the year. The Revolution's relocation was also influenced by the folding of the Columbus Cranes, the AUDL's only franchise in Ohio at the time. Other factors that played into the move were Cincinnati's youth ultimate scene, which has one of the top high school teams in the nation, and the strong culture around ultimate disc in the area. Additionally, the Revolution was being able to play its home games at the University of Cincinnati's Sheakley Athletic Center, which was then regarded as one of the top stadiums in the league.
With the addition of four new teams before the 2013 season, the AUDL reorganized into two six-team divisions. The Revolution joined the new Midwestern Division alongside former Western Division rivals Indianapolis and Detroit as well as three new teams—the Windy City Wildfire (later renamed the Chicago Wildfire and then the Chicago Union), the Minnesota Wild Chill, and the Madison Radicals.
Despite their 9–7 record in 2012, the Cincinnati Revolution entered the 2013 season as an underdog and experts predicted the Revolution would rank fifth in the Midwestern Division. A loss to Detroit and two to Windy City left the Revolution at 1-3 and in last place in the Midwestern Division after four weeks of play. Continued strong play from handler Chris "Fudge" Powers and deep cutter Isaac Jeffries, however, gave the Revolution back-to-back victories over the Mechanix, bringing them back to .500 and moving them up to third in the division and fourth in the season's power rankings. However, the Revolution went on to lose three straight games against division rival Indianapolis and then drop its next two matches against Minnesota and Madison, falling to 3–8. A 23–21 win against Madison kept the Revolution's playoff hopes alive, but another bad loss to the Wind Chill in Week 12 eliminated them from playoff contention. Their 4-12 finish left them in last place in the Midwestern Division.
Despite the disappointing season, the Revolution's roster included several of the AUDL's top performers such. Powers, who lead the league with 74 assists, made the All-AUDL First Team, Jeffries recorded a team-high 36 goals and Mark Fedorenko established himself as a solid deep defender with a team-leading 29 blocks.
