The Phi Kaps Prove Victorious in Greek Week at Lewis University
Romeoville, IL – October 30, 2009 – Did you see it? The target on Phi Kappa Theta’s back? Why, it was
easily visible from hundreds of yards away, as eight Greek organizations battled it out this week on the Lewis University
Greens.
The competition is called Greek Week, which takes place once a semester at this school of 6,000 students, located 40 minutes
south of Chicago.
The Phi Kaps (Illinois Kappa Phi chapter) dug in deep and fought quietly, staying near the top in all contests. Each day
held a different competition, from the wretched Karaoke to the treacherous Obstacle Course (complete with tires, a three-legged
race, dizzy bats and twinkies).
For the second straight semester, the winner of Greek Week would not be decided until the final contest: BAGS.
With the upstart fraternity of Tau Tau Tau within striking distance, the fate of a repeat Phi Kappa Theta victory was in
the steady hands of veteran Shaun Campbell and rookie Kevin Veatch.
The intense rain provided an epic backdrop, as scores of people huddled around to witness the outcome.
The Brothers of Tau Tau Tau drew first blood, with a quick 3 points, but the Phi Kaps quickly answered. Soon, the score
was tied at 5-5.
The Phi Kaps, wanting to leave nothing to chance, promptly went on a 10-0 run. This made the score 15 to 5, and they never
looked back.
Phi Kappa Theta proved victorious once again, winning bags by the score of 21-8, ultimately sealing the deal for the defending
champions.
“It feels great, it really does”, proclaimed Illinois Kappa Phi President, Billy Mackey. “Everybody fought
so hard, and I’m not limiting that to our organization. Just wait till next semester when that target we’ve been
carrying around gets even larger.”
