September 30, 1983.  Collier Field.


Saint James, playing shorthanded with two key injured starters on both sides of the ball, held their own against Catholic for a half, but eventually wore down and allowed three long touchdowns on special teams, defense, and offense in the final quarter as the Knights defeated the Trojans 40 - 0.  This was the first ever true home game for the Trojans against the Knights, having played previous games against them on the Montgomery Academy field and at the two teams' shared field located on the Catholic property. 

Saint James threatened to score on their first possession, just after the opening Catholic touchdown, but a fake field goal attempt on the Knights five yard line failed, and the Trojans never seriously neared the endzone afterwards.
