Flashes Bomb Taylor High Wildcats, 40-6 By DAVE CONOVER Sports Editor St. Joseph Academy ' s Flash- es went out looking for surpris- es from Pierson Taylor last night, and found them. One was that almost anyone on the St. Joe squad can run with the ball, and defensive standout Rick Hernandez, is in- cluded in that list. And another thing was that, buried under a haystack of rushing yardage, the Flashes are capable of a creditable pas- sing game under the quarter- backing of Paul Thomas. Both aspects of football were combined in their 40-6 win over the Pierson Taylor Wildcats. The well-attended win at St. Augustine stadium was the fifth this season for the Flashes whose percentage slipped over the .500 mark. Flash announcer Tim Webb, after what seemed like an espe- cially long third quarter, res- ponded to the buzzer marking the end of the period with: That ' s the ball game, a statement usually reserved for the end of the game. But that, as Webb said, might just as well have been the end of the St. Johns River Conference clash because, by that time, the Flashes had seen to it that Taylor was thorough- ly outscored as well as out- classed. Three Flash TD ' s during the Deriod helr ed make it seem like HOT PURSUIT-St. Joseph Acade- my halfback, Doug Grissom, 44, re- mains just a step ahead of Pierson Taylor Defender, Ronnie Carlisle while the Flashes, Mike Robshaw, 13, rushes in to help during the third pe- riod of the game at St. Augustine High Stadium. Grissom got 10 yards on the run and a first down for St. Joe which won the game, 40-6, over the Wild- cats. a long one. Already St. Joe had assemb- led a wide leading margin. Eight minutes after the initial kickoff Sandy Preston snored (he first touchdown on a 10 yard run. Preston then hit an unusual duplication in the following two tallies. After a 50 yard march which carried through into the second period, the Flash tail- back broke through for an ap- parent TD from the 2. It was called back on a five - yard penalty and St. Joe wound up trying again from the 7. Pres- ton hit paydirt on a five yard run. The duplication followed two opponent plays later, when Rick Henrnandez covered a fumble on the Taylor 10. After an eight- yard Paul Thomas to Steve Hubbard pass, Preston carried the remaining two yards. Flags went down; the Flashes went back to the 7 to try again, and Doug Grissom wound up the march plunging through from the 1. A pass from Thomas to Pres- ton and ensuing 40-some yard run by Preston netted the ! Flashes a fourth TD in the third period. They added another in the same frame when Hubbard ran 30 yards to set up a scor- ing, five-yard charge by Jimmy Colee. And another when Bruce Bailey ran 39 yards to launch a one-yard tally by Hernandez. A 15 • yard penalty against St. Joe and 16 yard pass play I from Taylor quarterback John Anderson to halfback Leonard Heath netted the final touch- [ down of the game, a Wildcat tally just seconds before the game ended. Paul Thomas, who hit on five | of six passes for the evening be- hind outstanding protection, wound up with 64 passing yards to his credit and two successful conversions. His biggest hit was a screen to Lewis which netted the fourth touchdown. Rick Hernandez switched to the backfield after .some top- notch defensive efforts, and proved his offensive capability with 28 yards rushing and a touchdown in three carries. Others in on the Flash rush- ing game were Mike Robshaw and Jimmy Young.
