Cross & Crescent

Partnering with Todd Rogers, Phil Dalhausser won a gold medal last month in beach volleyball at the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. He credits much of the development of his skills and teamwork to his experiences with his brothers at Central Florida.

George Steinbarger and the Central Florida chapter alumni cheered “USA, USA” as they gathered at a restaurant near campus to watch their brother win gold. Ironically, Steinbarger jokes that when he teamed with Dalhausser for the intramural volleyball championship in college, they lost.

A hall of fame athlete, John McKinlay’s happiest days were rowing for Boston University and joining Lambda Chi Alpha. His coach at Boston, James Nesworthy, also was a brother and served as the chapter’s faculty adviser.
