Sigma Pi and Delta Delta Delta crooned, harmonized and smiled their way into first place of the Greek Sing competition on Sunday in Lantz Arena.

Anthony Sineni, a junior communication studies major and vice captain for Delta Sigma Pi said Sigma Pi knew they were formidable contenders and were not afraid to show it.

“From day one we came up hard,” Sineni said.

Tyler Anderson, a sophomore art major and the captain of the Sigma Pi team, agreed.

“We pretty much knew from the start (we were going to win),” Anderson said. “I fully believe in my guys.”

During their performance, the men of Sigma Pi integrated Justin Bieber. Their moves impressed the audience who loudly chanted “Bieber, Bieber, Bieber!” after they were finished.

Delta Delta Delta’s sailed away with their theme, where they wore sailor hats and their sea-themed choral arrangement, which charmed the crowd.

Some of the women of Delta Delta Delta sorority were not sure if they would make the cut.

Megan Trepanier, a freshman sociology major and a Delta Delta Delta sister, said the group was anxious to perform.

“We got nervous” Trepanier said. “There were a lot of good singers.”

It all started with an arrangement beginning with a Ke$ha cover by the men of Lambda Chi Alpha.

The brothers of Lambda Chi Alpha started the crowd laughing with hand motions and huge grins.

Sigma Phi Epsilon got plenty of sorority girls sighing when they began to sing the lyrics to “Stand By Me” by Ben E. King.

The fellows of Beta Theta Pi had a “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory” theme where they featured the songs from the movie.

Right after their performance, some of the brothers of Beta Theta Pi felt victorious.

Sudki Abdullah, a senior music education major, said they felt great after their performance.

“We feel awesome,” Abdullah said. “Right before we got up on stage we were ready.”

The crowd was downright raucous when Sigma Nu peppered their songs with names of other fraternities and sororities.

Alpha Sigma Tau’s 70’s theme, Alpha Sigma Alpha’s medley of Disney songs and Sigma Kappa’s 90’s theme had the crowd going back in time.

Delta Zeta blew kisses to the audience after their tribute to Whitney Houston.

The second place winners were Sigma Phi Epsilon for the fraternity division and Alpha Gamma Delta for sorority division. The third place winners were Sigma Alpha Epsilon for the fraternity division and Delta Zeta for sorority division.
