Count 'em... THREE Phi Sig athletes in the Games!

OK... BIG news alert.... Arriving here, we thought we'd be cheering on Aubrey Birden as the lone Phi Sig participating as an athlete at this year's Games.

Good news! Including her, there are actually three sisters competing in Pittsburgh! The other two include:

  • Julie Riggi, of Gamma Xi (Widener), who had a double lung transplant in 2004, and
  • Sharon Hill, of Epsilon Zeta (Bloomsburg University), who had a liver transplant just two short years ago.
All our athletes are in the peak of health, as a testament to the incredible, undeniable impact of organ donation/transplantation. And Julie and Sharon were thrilled to find us here! Look for more information on them soon.... For now, as we wrap up tonight's iReports, we wish all three of our sisters GOOD LUCK in the Games. We are rooting for you, and you are an inspiration to us all!
