Just one area of the game to
specialize In and they all did a
good Job with their responsi
bilities.
‘ ‘Our boys had more pride them
the average kid we’ve been get
ting,” says Jones. “If they will
work hard between now and next
year we can be a contender
again. A lot of them have a
future In football beyond the high
school level.”
Although the nucleus of the
ballteam returns next year,
Jones says the 8-2 season
couldn't have been possible with
out the outstanding play of the 10
seniors coi the team.
Thoae 10 Include:
Mike Bumgarner, the team’s
quarterback who led the Moun
taineers to a 19-0-2 record In his
three years as a starter. Hie only
other KMHS quarterback to lead
the team to three better years
was Pat Murphy, who quarter-
backed the 1062 - 68-64 MounUes
to a 28-6-2 figure.
Marie Moore, a three-year
starter at tackle whose blocking
helped the Mountaineers estab
lish one of the best running
games In the SWC. Moore was
probably the team’s moat
dedicated football jdayer.
Tim Spicer, one of die most
underrated players In the
league. He helped hold together
a defensive unit adilch was
ranked as the best In the (xmfer-
ence over the first seven games.
William Thompson, a versatile
ballplayer, who started at safety
but was capable of playing Just
about any posltlcn on the field.
His booming kickoffs usually put
the enemy deep In Its own terri
tory and his ability to return
kickoffs and punts always kept
the opposing defenses honest.
Richard Ross, a 168-pound
halfback who developed Into the
team’s best runner late In the
season. His service was Invalua
ble as he doubled as a oomer-
back and ssifety on defense.
Larry Smith, a guard who did
a hangup Job on defense.
A1 Eddlns, a defensive back
who came out this year after not
playing football since his fresh
man year. But, Jemea says, “we
couldn’t have won eight games
without him.”
Peter Brown, a spUtend that
Jones says will be hard to
replace.
Scott Wells, a guard who could
fill In (m either offense or
defense, and a young man that
made the starters work hard In
practice In order to keep their
positions.
Kennedi McGinnis, a tackle on
the specialty teams, and who did
a good Job of filling In for the
front-line starters.
Jones says another big key to
the team’s success was the
dedication of the managers —
Ronnie Tesseneer. Tom
Szymborakl, Steve Boggan, Jeff
Boggan, and Larry GUI — and
the help given by the press box
and chain gang crews.
“These people dmi’t usuaUy
get any recognition for the Jobs
they do,” noted Jones, “but
they’re always there to help you.
We’d be in bad shape If we didn’t
have them.”
The 8-2 season, as already
mentioned, was the best of any
KMHS team since ’64, when tbs
Mountles won the SWC title with
a 10-0 regular season nurk. They
then lost to Hickory 6-0 In tbs
Western N. C. Hlg^ Schools
Activities Association.
After that year, the Mountles
went five long seasons without
winning over five baUgames.
They went 7-8 In '70 In their last
year under Coach BUI Bates and
their best mark since, until this
year, was 7-2-1 In ’74 when they
finished third behind South Point
and Shelby. That year, the
Mountles appeared to have a
playoff berth sewed up but were
upset by Bums hi the season’s
finale.
In terms of gcunes won and
lost, this year’s team was the
fifth best for KM since the
organization of the SWC In 1964.
The only teams to have better
records were the ’56 (10-1-1), ’66
(10-0-1), ’60 (9-1), ’68 (9-0-1) and
’64 (10-1) outfits.
Thus, the ’76 Mountaineers
have a right to be proud of thelf
record but the {dayers returning
next year also have a responsi
bility to better It. An Improve
ment of five vlctortes would be a
good goal to set. That would
mean a 18-0 record and the state
8-A championship.
