October 11, 1996  Carlisle Field.   HOMECOMING   Game conditions:  not yet available

The Saint James Trojans finally managed to keep an opponent from scoring early and often against them as they won their first game of the 1996 season on Homecoming by defeating the Calhoun Tigers 18 - 0.  Keith Horn kicked three consecutive field goals, becoming the first Trojan to successfully kick three in the same game.  He added an extra point on the Trojans' only touchdown, a 23 yard touchdown pass from Alan Olsen to Jason Smith.  Richard Meadows was responsible for the other two points as he blocked a punt through the Calhoun endzone for a third quarter safety.  Smith led the Trojan rushing attack with 92 yards on 19 carries, while Olsen completed 6 passes for 66 yards.

The Trojan defense held the Tigers to under 170 total yards, and registered their first shutout since the final regular season game of the previous season.
