Show Olympus Improves To Titans Keep Rolling; Rout Lancers HOLLADAY. Olympus highs h Ericson did all he could Friday hHp Granger's game plan to keep i,:m off the field. G i ang-'s problem was that Eric-- n and troops struck for big plays n. route to a 32 3 Homecoming victory, giving Olympus a 13 0 edge Ku r over the Lancers in the series. Granger did beat the Titans in a playoff in 1981, winning a "half" 7 0 in one of Region Three's so called Toilet Bowl" matchups. The latest victory should have removed the major hurdle the Titans faced in repeating as Region Three champs, although on Oct. 13 the Titans must face Cottonwood. If Oly has a hex on Granger, Cottonwood, over the years, has had one on the Titans, often beating good Olympus teams in years when the Colts were down. Olympus closes out the season at action late in Friday's key match between Titans and lancers. Granger's Gus Lavaka (99) hauls down reserve quarterback Eire Segura during SACK. . . Olympus - Cyprus in a night contest. It's not sewed up yet, remarked Coach Louie Long. The Titans met Sky view yesterday after press time. Granger took the UEA period off. We have to remember that were still having a fine season remarked Coach Mike Fraser, who will next battle a desperate, winless (in league play) Granite team before meeting Skyline for what could be second place in the region. Olympus got on the scoreboard first Friday. With the Lancers thinking pass after a short punt, Ericson handed off to Rick Douglas on the first play of the second Titan series. Douglas ran over right guard, broke into the secondary, lost his shoe and scampered 50 yards, the clock reading 5: 48. Then Granger did what it wanted to do. Aided by an illegal participation penalty on fourth down, the Lancers drove down inside the Titan five, keeping Ericson on the sideline. But that was as far as they would get. The massive Titan line fought off the challenge and forced Fraser to settle for a field goal on the first play of the second period From then on, it was all Olympus. Granger rarely crossed midfield and never the 35. if took Ericson only two plays to find some breathing room. He hooked up with Andy Boyce on a screen pass for a touchdown that came at 10:44. The play covered 73 yards. At 3:15, Boyce took another toss from the Titan signal caller, this one for 32 yards. It produced a 20-- halftime lead and forced Granger to give up its ground attack. The new game plan made quarterback Mitch Mills a prime target for the active Titan linebacking crew and although he completed 9x18, he was sacked a dozen times, losing 89 yards. A holding call wiped out a Titan touchdown pass in the second half, but Ericson came right back to fire a scoring strike to Alex Hoggan to cap a drive and in the fourth period, Steve Wright gathered in a punt and squirted out of the grasp of a defender for a scoring jaunt The Titans missed three points after and that had Long and his staff putting in extra time on the kicking game. Both teams had a dozen first downs, but the Titans covered 330 yards while the sacks erased Granger's to 111. The Lancers, with two backs who had been getting 100 yards apiece, were stymied by a Titan defense that may be operating in the shadow of the offense. Make no mistake.

Judge had one first down in the second half - that aided by a penalty. The lone Bulldog score came after Judge failed to make a foot on a fourth and that far play. Joe Bob Welsh and Len Murphy converged on Jordan quarterback Mike Thompson for a safety.
