FORT MEADE Tampa Bay Tech 0 Fort Meade 13 A long drive to Fort Meade found the Titans in the midst of a well or- ganized team. The Titans played an excellent defensive game against the miners. The team was led by Randolph Myers. Daryl Blaxton started as Quarter- back forthe first time and did an excellent job. The final score of O-1 3 was a disappointment for the Titans, however, their spirit remained high. 110

ST. PETE CATHOLIC Tampa Bay Tech 0 St. Pete Catholic 19 The Titans came off a long and weary five game road trip. Tech drove down the field early in the game but was halted. The newly named St. Pete Catholic team showed that new names mean nothing as they once again cranked up another overpowering team. A deter- mined Baron defense halted Tech even though the Big Blue knocked on the door twice in the game. A slim 6-0 Baron lead, at the half, was opened up in the third period and the fourth. Several third-down key plans for St. Pete Catholic and a fumble-prone Tech offense were the ingredients to a depressing 19-0 homecoming. Homecoming '73 was a day filled with lots of color and excitement. The Homecoming Pep rally was full of spirit. It was shown by yelling, happy tunes and signs. The first talented float contest showed what Tech is all about. Several human pyramids were made by students at the rally and the evening was highlighted by the crowning of the queen and the announcement of the float contest winners. i aa 1 , 5 ' Y T ' 1 0 9

An 80 yard drive and two fumbles inside the 20 of TBT sent Plant soaring into the dressing room with 31 -O lead. The reserves seemed to be what Tech needed as they held Plant to only one touch- down in the final quarter. I if 111
