Delta Tau Delta Olympics

A few members of the Pi Phi team with their Delta Tau Delta coaches!
On Thursday, April 12, a team of Pi Phi members participated in Delta Tau Delta's new philanthropy, "Delt Olympics." The proceeds from this event benefitted Cook Children's Hospital, a nonprofit healthcare service that has worked to improve children's health since 1918. The competition consisted of five different events: a soccer penalty kick shootout, a basketball game of "knockout," a whiffle ball home run derby, a relay race, and a spirit competition. Our team was also assigned 3 coaches from Delta Tau Delta to help out with events. Overall, we loved getting to participate in Delta Tau Delta's Olympics and support Cook Children's Hospital!

Pi Phi Wins Sigma Chi Derby Days Philanthropy!

 On Friday, March 2, Sigma Chi hosted its annual Derby Days sand volleyball tournament, benefitting the Huntsman Cancer Foundation. Derby Days started in 1935 in the University of California (Berkeley), and our Texas Delta chapter was proud to be a part of it! The girls went undefeated in three different volleyball matches, staying calm in the finals to win in a clean 2 out of 3 games. Over 30 girls from our chapter came to either play in the tournament or cheer our team on, bringing some great Pi Phi spirit! Overall, we definitely had a great time getting to support Sigma Chi and winning Derby Days as well!

Preparing for an ace!
