UBC Storm the Wall 2011 Champions!
Another year has passed and training has ended prior to the biggest Intramural event of North America this school year! Storm the Wall! There have been over 3,500 participants this year and another great event put on by UBC REC yet again.
8 Men’s teams and 13 CoRec teams of Alpha Delta Phi stormed the wall this year, in which many of them made it through to the semi-finals, but only 3 Men’s teams made it to the finals. Phiolators, Alpha Deltanators and Alpha Delta Phorze were in the Hindmarch Finals along with Sigma Chi, Phi Delta Theta, FIJI and our sport arch-rivals, Beta Theta Pi. An intense battle saw a Phi Delt wipe out on the cycle track, in which an ambulance had to be called, delaying the whole Storm schedule. However, Hindmarch finals continued and our top Men’s team eventually beat off the other fraternities to claim Number 1 in the Hindmarch Finals.
Being Hindmarch Champions, it was time for the UBC Divisional Finals that saw Alpha Delta Phi compete against the UBC MED team. With the brothers and the Alpha Delta Girls on the side cheering on Jesse Ory, Matthias Kempe, Jeff Hart, Luka Bogdanovic and Colin Keightley from the Phiolators, they pushed their limits, gave it everything they got in the rain and finally walking over the 12 foot wall to defeat the MED team to become UBC Champions for the 2nd year in a row.
So guess what?
Not only we are Storm the Wall 2011 Champions, BUT also Triple Crown Winners of 2011 too!
Congratulations boys on a fantastic result this year and now all that is left is the Sports Trophy!
Thank you to all the brothers who competed, all the brothers who cheered us on and especially UBC REC for putting on such a magnificent event.
