Biography
Thomas L. Durrance was a college football player. He was a prominent halfback for the Florida Gators of the University of Florida from 1969 to 1971; one of the "Super Sophs". During his sophomore season, he scored 110 points—then the school record, and still tied for second on the Gators' single-season records list. He was only the second person in SEC history to score 100. His 18 touchdowns gave him the nickname of "Touchdown Tommy." Durrance finished his three-year college career with 2,582 yards of combined rushing and receiving yardage. He was from Daytona Beach.
