ff' ,XVI Johnny Lewis ll2l, an unidentified Trolan defender and Ken Wamble l2Ol stop this Gander drive, Trzoylwe AND GANDEIZQ QLOP TO 0-0 ne The Troians were knocked out of a tie for the lead in district l2-4A on a slippery, muddy field in Baytown against the upset-minded Ganders. An added weapon of the Ganders was a heavy fog which rolled in during the second half and stymied the Trojans' offensive strategy. This game proved to be a defensive game as neither team's offensive unit seriously threatened. The game ended in a O-O tie and the disheartened Trojans returned to South Houston. Lewis U21 finds an opening in the Gander defense for a long gain. Moon ll ll eludes several Gander defenders for a substantial goin, YJ Ns ,X xx ,, f I ' 4' f 1 K U I 4-yi K, ey.

QTOPPLETE90-WQ 21-7 Trailing at halftime 7-O, the Trojans came back to down Rayburn Zl-7. Don Moon scored the only first half tally on a sweep around left end, The Troians scored two more TD's, one on a T5-yard pass from Moon to Archer and another on a six-yard plunge by Brogna. The Troian offense was sparked throughout the game by quarterback Don Moon and full- back Rick Lindberg, who picked up a total of 99 yards rushing. The Trojan defense was not as- leep either, being led by Johnny Miller and Tommy Watson. The turning point of the game came when the defense made a remarkable four play goal line stand on their own three-yard line. After this the offense seemed to come alive and it was the Tro- ians all the way the rest of the game. .- .

EAGLES ENG-ULF Q 22-2 After holding the Eagles to very little yardage the first half, the Tro- ian defense seemed to fall apart the second half, allowing the Eagles to roll up 23 points, The only Troian score in the game came off the toe of Wayne Adams on a twenty-five yard field goal. The score was set up by a fine pass interception and run-back by linebacker Lyndal Ken- nedy. The Troians threatened to score only once, when fullback Rick Lindberg fought his way tothe Eagle seven-yard line. This was as close as the Troians got all night, and the final game of the season ended in a 23-3 defeat for the Trojans.
