Now Playing: "We are the Champions"
Topic: Theology III '05-'06
Tonight the bottom seed team from St. Mary's Seminary; Bump, Set, Pray; went 4-0 to get past the first two teams (one being "The Killer Bunnies" looking frightening in their pink shirts) to make it to the finals to play the top seeded team, "the Blue Team," that had two volleyball players. The first game went to the lose collomn with a score of 25-14. Knowing we had our work cut out for us...we had to win the next two in the best of three set. We returned the favor with a win of 25-8. The third and final game would be our 7th game in a row to play. Though fatigue was starting to set in, we played like bandits and came away with the game and the championship with a final score of 25-9. The final point was scored by our manditory girl (coed teams are manditory) who claimed she wasn't that good but scored many points for us, including the one to clinch the championship. Now we can be seen sporting our new maroon and gold trophy shirts.

This excitment comes amidst thoughts of concern as we might be evacuated out of Houston due to Rita's unwelcome landfall projected to be Galveston on Friday afternoon. Please pray for the Katrina victoms that are being forced out of Houston to Arkansas and for those who will be displaced from their homes if this storm hits the coast of Texas. The seminary may be evacuated Thursday if need be, with Austin guys going to the heavenly land of Bryan-College Station, and all others (including me) going to San Antonio until we can return to Houston. I hope to have another entry soon with good news, but time will tell.
