In the very first play of the game a pass from Vic Prosser to flankerback Pete Franco went nearly all the way. After this the game bogged down to a mid-field battle for three quarters. Towards the end of the last quarter, Prosser passed to Chuck Horton, who moved the ball to the Arroyo three-yard line. Prosser then sprinted over with only one minute and ten seconds left in the game to score Tennyson's historic, first-ever touchdown. ln order to make their lone score, the Lancers had to gain 299 yards. They showed a little more of a ground game, as they totaled ninety yards via the turf. Most of the yardage, though, was gained through the air, with quarterback Vic Prosser com- pleting fifteen passes to gain a total of 180 yards. Preceded in scoring touchdowns by Franco lib and Ruskofsky 125, Guy Beach makes a fourth. This touchdown resulted from a sixty- nine-yard drive which was spearheaded by both Guy Beach and Ed Janke.
