"I had to gamble on (Steve)
Jones hitting that free throw"
Coach Don Parker said Tuesday
^night at Central gymnasium aft
er Kings Mountain high school
split two close games with
Cherryvllle high, the Mountain
eena winning 21 to 19 and the
girls losing 33 to 39 in the open
er.
Jones sank the shot with 43
seconds left, his only chance
from the free throw line during
the game, and wrapped up a
weird contest that "dragged" the
clock and which saw a total of
six personal fouls called by the
officials in the final minute, five
against the losers.
Guard Hoyle hit a charity shot
with four and one-half minutes
left, only one of seven tries by
| Cherryvllle in the final stanza, to
send the losers ahead by 18-19
but Guard Johnny Kiser bucketed
! the clincher with three minutes,
I 15 seconds left to put the Moun
; taineers back out front.
Jones had fouled Hoyle with
56 seconds remaining as Kings
Mountain was attempting to
freeze the ball. After Jones' good
toss Kings Mountain took the
ball out of bounds on the last
i three personals called against
. the losers.
