IU Sing has been an Indiana University tradition that originated in the 1920’s, where all the campus a cappella groups compete in front of a panel of judges. After 13 years, IU Sing returned and 6 groups competed, as the Top 3 winners win a spot to sing at the Little 500. We placed 2nd and are extremely excited and grateful to sing the National Anthem at the Little 500 in April.
