Every Elizabethtown College a cappella group made the cut for the next International Championship of Collegiate a Cappella (ICCA) singing competition. Melica, Phalanx and Vocalign are scheduled to compete in the ICCA Mid-Atlantic Quarterfinal on Feb. 7 in Eisenhower Auditorium at Pennsylvania State University.

Melica, which is the College’s all-woman a cappella group, represented Etown at the ICCA at Rutgers University in New Jersey last year. This time around, all three groups have the opportunity to compete against two other a cappella teams from Dickinson College and four from Pennsylvania State University, as well as one group from York College of Pennsylvania. Varsity Vocals owns and coordinates each competition. According to Varsity Vocals’ website, “the competitions receive applications each fall” and accepted groups first participate in the ICCA Quarterfinals. ICCA Finals are held in New York City.
