Phi Kappa Psi faces possible disqualification from Tugs competition

DeKALB — The Interfraternity Council is investigating a situation where Phi Kappa Psi could be disqualified from the Tugs Championship. An Interfraternity Council executive member brought the incident up to other members of the board.

Phi Kappa Psi allegedly put an alternate in during the second rope of their semi-final matchup without notifying the Interfraternity Council. Their alternate weighted 195.4 pounds and replaced a tugger that weighed 158.4 pounds putting them over the weight limit.

A member of Phi Kappa Theta said the impact of the alternate could have changed the outcome of their match against Phi Kappa Psi.
