Polity Bowl Results

The annual fall classic "Polity Bowl," featuring the students of Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary (APTS) and the Episcopal Theological Seminary of the Southwest (ETSS), was played last Saturday, December 4, at the grounds of St. Andrews Episcopal Middle School. The following partially-redacted scripture appeared on the Polity Bowl t-shirts this year:

[The Lord] will surely violently turn and toss thee like a ball...

Isaiah 22:18

And thus, both teams were tossed into the fray. The result: Victory for the adherents of the doctrine of total depravity! The Presbyterians seminarians defrocked the wannabee priests of the Episcopal seminary by the score of 30-6 on the strength of a well-rehearsed triple-option play that left the Episcopalian defense in tatters. Congratulations to Coach Andrew and the entire Presbyterian team! And thanks to the gracious hosts from ETSS who provided an excellent Texas BBQ post-game lunch.
