I have a great picture of DG and Theta seniors together on the blue balconies at the "pregame" for the DG-Theta softball game. I wonder if they still have that game? That used to be a blast.
Good luck to all this weekend. Such great memories!

The blue apts were so much fun and I think I saw FB pictures of a Theta/DG softball game from just this spring and they were covered in mud because it was raining. I played in it as well (although I'm not much of a player)
My junior year we had a new freshman that told us she had played alittle softball in high school. Very tall, quiet, pretty, super sweet girl until she pitched that ball...or was behind the bat. She was outrageously good at the game and made for a very easy win that year! I graduated in 1990 so I'm thinking we may of just missed being in the house at the same time.
Living in house was great being so close to the quad but that senior year in the blue apts with 4 other dg's made for a very fun year as well!
