Heretickin'

by Jeni

For the first time in seminary history (or remembered seminary history) the heretics have a winning season! It was close with the record at 4-4-1 (4 wins, 4 losses and one awesome tie), but we'll count it.

We started the game down one, but quickly scored two goals (yay Matt and Nick!) Half time came and went and the second half saw another goal by Nick (woot, woot!) and then the sweetest goal ever by my husband Colin! It was pretty rad. Colin's goal ended up being the game-winner as the next few minutes saw our stand-in goalie blast one right off of defensive guru Jesse into our own goal. What can we say, we're generous.

The goals weren't even the highlight of the game! In the first half Check Mate Cate ran in to sub and right away blocked a kick. It was amazing. She came flying through the air, kung-powed the ball with her knee and it sailed so far that it ricocheted off the wall a couple of times and landed in the bottom of a garbage container. 5 points! She didn't even realize it until we were all cheering; the ball kinda stung.

As always, we ended up at Manning's for food and fellowship. Tune in this January for more Heretickin' Highlights.

I'm pretty sure that the change in record was due in large part to our awesome new red t-shirts with the flame for heretics on the front in back. $15 and available in all sizes and a great Christmas (or Advent) gift. See Colin if you want one! Please!!
