Tracy, I pledged in '90 but I still might know who your friend is....no I was one of the few Delt girls. There were a couple of Delt girlfriends, including a Delt Sweetheart who ended up pledging Chi O my last year, and a group of the younger girls hung out there then because of them. There always seemed to be different "phases......" My freshman year, for instance, we hung out with the Delts and the Phi Delts. The Alpha Phis had a virtual monopoly on the Sigma Chis until my senior year. The DGs hung out with the SAEs and to a lesser degree the Delts. Then my sophomore year, we started to get very tight with the SAEs (though there was still a very strong Phi Delt contingent.) The SAEs were pretty popular with the girls in general, most of the sororities had little SAE groupie cliques. But the DGs kind of moved in on the Phi Delts that year. We were still tight with SAE my junior year, but some of the girls started infiltrating the SX house. Then my senior year the older XOs were all about SX and the Alpha Phis had moved on to the SAEs. Strange. After Brent and I graduated the Delts really took a nosedive. They had been top 3 for a long time and all of a sudden things really got shaken up. SX stayed strong but SAE ended up getting booted for a few years and Phi Tau and DU took over as the top houses. I think the Delts are bouncing back now, they seem to have a good group of guys but their numbers are weak. Back when Brent was an active they were just awesome....they were the big strong jock guys who had fantastic parties and loved to fight.
