The Xi Chapter of Sigma Psi Zeta (SYZ), an Asian-interest sorority, competes at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln’s annual Stroll Off competition, held April 2 in the Nebraska Coliseum.

The SYZ dancers modeled their look off the Netflix show “Money Heist,” a Spanish drama in which robbers sport red jumpsuits and masks bearing the visage of artist Salvador Dalí.
