St. Andrew and St. Stephens Episcopal Schools are rivals in more than just football.
The real rivalry started long before the game, when both schools began competing for the Harvest Bowl, a ceramic bowl that belongs to the school who can raise more food for charity.
Students from grades one to 12 collected food while juggling their schoolwork and extra-curricular activities.
"To put this as a priority for something they don't have to do but just can do, it just is inspirational and amazing to me," director of community service Chris Martin said.

More than 20,000 food items were collected--enough to keep the food pantry shelves stocked until the next Harvest Bowl.
"We branched out and made this competition more than just a football game," student Brett Zimmerman said. "This is really what community means."
The St. Andrew's crusaders lost the football game, but they won the bowl.
