Mark Kitchens scored three touchdowns in a turnover-filled game as the Trojans shut out their second consecutive city rival; this time the Catholic Knights were the 28 - 0 victim.  The teams combined for five turnovers on the first five drives on the way to a miserably sloppy start.  The fifth turnover, an interception of Catholic, was returned deep into Knight territory, setting up the first Trojan touchdown, Kitchens' one yard run.

Catholic returned the ensuing kickoff to the Trojan 48, and appeared to have connected on a 48 yard touchdown pass on the next play, but an illegal formation penalty wiped out the touchdown, which proved to be the only serious scoring threat of the entire game by Catholic.  A total of three interceptions thrown and two fumbles lost by the Knights indeed proved costly.

Kitchens added two touchdown runs of one and thirteen yards in the third quarter as Saint James pulled away, and Jody Dunning added an insurance touchdown as the reserves earned a chance to score against their Vaughn Road neighbor in the final minutes.
