Apparently ultimate players, in general, are smart. According to 2006 a study at the University of Washington:
Participating in ultimate frisbee was an indicator of academic success. The decade-long study showed that, among all 86 private national universities, those ranking in the top half for ultimate frisbee have a graduation rate of over 85 percent, compared to a graduation rate of 60 percent among schools in the bottom half. The top half schools also had 208 Rhodes and Marshall scholars, versus 15 from schools in the bottom half.
