Revolver wins second straight U.S. Open on universe point

Michael Ing’s denial on the final point and Anton Orme’s finish in the end zone pushed San Francisco Revolver past the last hurdle of the U.S. Open final, a universe-point win that delivered the club its second straight title and fifth overall. The finish turned a tense championship into another signature Revolver closeout, with defense setting up offense when the margin had vanished.

USA Ultimate celebrated the sequence across Instagram, X and Facebook, spotlighting Ing’s denial and Orme sending the game-winner into the end zone. The federation also identified Revolver as back-to-back champions, underscoring how quickly the San Francisco program converted a single-point swing into another trophy.

The result carried weight beyond one title game. Ultiworld described the U.S. Open as the first leg of the Triple Crown Tour, and its men’s final preview cast the bracket as a fight between “a potential ninth unique champion” and “a dynasty trying to return to power.” Revolver answered that setup with the kind of late-game composure that has long separated the standard-setting teams from the rest of the field.

That composure mattered most on universe point, when every cut, throw and defensive read has championship consequences. Ing’s denial created the decisive turnover, and Orme’s conversion ended the match immediately, a sequence that showed Revolver winning the final possession in the exact order elite teams want: first the stop, then the strike. In a game decided by one point, the club made the cleanest play available under the most severe pressure.

For Revolver, the title was more than another banner. It was the second consecutive U.S. Open crown and, by USA Ultimate’s count, the fifth in program history, reinforcing San Francisco’s place at the center of the men’s club game every time the bracket gets tight.
