2011 Step Show FIJI Takes 2nd Place Men’s Division Step Show 2011, like every other year, was very a very intense competition. With the new step show chairman Noah Luke Shell leading the Super Bro Team of Phi Gamma Delta, FIJI took second place in the men’s division. The team stepped to songs such as The Final Countdown, “S” on my chest, and Soulja Boy. The competition was fierce, but Phi Gam took the Second Place Trophy. Brother Noah Shell said this one of the hardest task he has taken on. “Its very hard teaching a bunch of white guys rhythm,” says Brother Shell. We will be sure to inform the Graduate Brothers the dates and times for Step Sing in the Spring, and we look forward to dominating the competition there as well. 4
