Honor Roll: Final Regular Season Weekend


July 21, 2025
By Evan Lepler

Players are listed alphabetically. 

Daan De Marrée, Chicago Union (Pictured)

We don’t have game-by-game stats for the 2012 and 2013 seasons, so I can’t make this statement with 100 percent certainty. But dating back to at least 2014, the UFA may not have seen a player accomplish what Daan De Marrée has done over his past four games, in which he’s finished with a double-digit plus/minus every time. This past weekend, the 24-year-old Belgian recorded seven goals, four assists, and three blocks on Saturday against Detroit, then he added five goals, five assists, and two blocks at Madison on Sunday. By the way, he also went 52-for-52 passing with zero turnovers, reaching plus-14 versus the Mechanix and plus-12 at the Radicals. Plus/minus is far from the perfect stat, but is it possible that De Marree might presently be the closest thing to a perfect player that we’ve ever witnessed?

Nate De Morgan, Salt Lake Shred

In his first five games with the Shred, Nate De Morgan was like a fancy new car that Salt Lake, from an O-line perspective, mostly kept locked up in the garage. But on Friday night against Minnesota, the 19-year-old frisbee wunderkind really revved his engines on offense for the first time, to dazzling results. Quite simply, De Morgan’s got the throwing skills, arsenal, and swagger to change the shape of the field for the Shred attack, and the recent college champ will absolutely be a tantalizing X-factor for Salt Lake in the playoffs. He set a new career-high with 190 throwing yards against the Wind Chill, completing three hucks and tallying five scores—three assists and two goals—in Salt Lake’s 22-18 triumph. 

Sam Grossberg, Philadelphia Phoenix

Speaking of 19-year-old phenoms, Saturday saw Sam Grossberg enjoy a splendid capstone to his rookie season in the UFA. While he couldn’t quite propel Philly into the playoffs, the 2025 campaign served as a vivid announcement that the Phoenix have a marvelous young core that could absolutely contend in years ahead. On Saturday against the Breeze, Grossberg went 55-for-55 for 488 throwing yards, along with three assists, three goals, and 208 receiving yards. Add in five hockey assists and it was a virtually flawless night for the ultra-talented teen. Selecting just seven to make the first All-Rookie Team will be a daunting task that will ultimately omit some deserving names, but I think it’s safe to say that Grossberg has one of the seven spots locked up. 

Jason Kempe, Indianapolis AlleyCats

While very few frisbee fans could probably pick 24-year-old Jason Kempe out of a lineup, the third-year AlleyCat did something on Saturday that no one else in the UFA had done all year. He finished his season with seven blocks against the Thunderbirds, the most for any player in a single game in the league this season. That’s one block shy of the single-game UFA record, a mark that was set in 2013 and matched five times since, most recently in 2018. That also means that since the timing rules changed to shorten games at the start of 2019, no one has ever tallied more blocks in a game than Kempe, who also tossed three assists in Indianapolis’ 25-18 victory over Pittsburgh. Buoyed by the Week 13 burst, Kempe finished the year tied with De Marree for sixth in the league in blocks. 

Allan Laviolette, Carolina Flyers

What a phenomenal 2025 season for Allan Laviolette, and it’s a bummer that we’re talking about it in the past tense. Even though the Flyers were eliminated from the playoffs prior to their Week 13 doubleheader in Texas, the 36-year-old veteran still showed why he’s likely a lock for First Team All-UFA honors. In a pair of Carolina victories, Laviolette threw 11 assists, caught three goals, and recorded three blocks. He also went 4-for-5 on his hucks and created over 900 total yards. He finished his season with 67 assists, the most in the league. His 89 scores—scores being goals plus assists—also ranked number one. And in perhaps the most impressive stat of all, he completed 32-of-37 hucks, an 86.5 percent success rate. Many of those hucks were hauled in by Terrence Mitchell, who also deserves a shout-out after his 11-goal, three-assist, two-block, two-win weekend to close out the Flyers’ season. 

Marc Muñoz, Seattle Cascades

Although he unfortunately missed the Cascades’ Friday contest at Colorado, Marc Muñoz produced one of the best throwing games of the season on Saturday against Oregon. The 25-year-old closed out his seventh UFA season by dishing nine assists, four more than his next highest mark from any other date in his now 70-game career. He also went 44-for-45 for a career-high 585 throwing yards and completed five out of his six hucks. Like Carolina, Seattle also disappointingly fell from a Championship Weekend appearance in 2024 to outside of the playoff picture a year later, but Muñoz enters the offseason coming off arguably his best game ever, and he almost certainly remains a key part of the Cascades’ core heading into 2026. 

Jack Williams, New York Empire

For Jack Williams and the Empire, the real season starts this Saturday at DC. In New York’s final tune-up, a 22-21 win over Boston, Williams appeared poised and prepared for the challenges ahead. The 30-year-old hybrid went 60-for-62, producing season highs in completions and throwing yards (608) in his regular season finale. His 2025 journey ignominiously began with six turnovers at Oakland in the opener and was also marred by a mid-May hamstring injury, but Williams has found his top form in recent weeks. He went 3-for-3 on his hucks against the Glory, finishing with four assists and four hockey assists. Furthermore, with four straight wins heading into the playoffs, the Empire carry the third-longest winning streak of any active participant, only trailing Chicago and Salt Lake, who bring their brilliant streaks of 12 and 11 consecutive wins, respectively, into the 2025 playoffs.
