Tech Raids Plant City Richard Molden It took nine games for the Titans to get together and play the kind of football that they really could play. The game against the Raiders of Plant City, who were the district champs, completely surprised the Plant City team and coaches. The Titans pushed their way to a tremendous upset victory. The first time the Titans touched the ball, Sam Wash- ington drove the Big Blue offense 70 yards, which was climaxed by an 11 yard run by George Peeples. With six seconds into the second quarter, Washington hit home again by driving a six yard touchdown pass to Rich- ard Molden. Plant City would not be denied one score as they got their touchdown mid- way through the second quarter. To put the icing on the cake, in the third quarter, Wash- ington bootlegged around the left end and sprinted 65 yards for the score. Special con- gratulations goes to the defense for shutting out Plant City for the remainder of the sec- ond half to win the game, Tampa Tech 20, Plant City 7.
