65 Thursday, March 4, 1965 THE KINGS MOUNTAIN HERALD. KINGS MOUNTAIN. N. C. three-sport sweep this year. Coach Bill Bates’ football team won the Southwest‘ Conference championship with a 7-0 conference record, and now the Mountaineer basketball five has won the con- Iference championship. A three-sport sweep would be a record for KMHS and the conference also. The baseball race will probably be just as tight as the basketball title drive has been, with the Shelby Lions probably being the most dangerous team in the confer ence. Kings Mountain’s main problem will be the pitching. Seniors Seerley Lowery, a southpaw’, and Bill Mullinax, along with junior Steve Goforth and sophomore Tommy Goforth will be the mainstays on the pitching mound, with infieiders Mickey Bell, Pat Murphy, and Richard Gold leading the batsmen. Ten returning lettermen will make up a part of the ’6.T baseball team. Let's Review The School Year The Kings Mountain high school Mountaineer football team won the conference championship w'ith an overall season record (including playoff) of 10-1. The Mounties swept through the 10 regularly scheduled games without too much trouble but fell to Hickorv 6-0 in the initial game of the WNCITSAA playoffs in Shelby. R-S Central and Mooresville were the only two teams (with the e.sception of Hickory) that gave the locals any trouble. The Mounties took a 12-7 homecoming decision Irom Mooresville and downed the Hilltoppers 21-20 in a thriller here. Kings Mountain took other victories from Shelby (19- 7), Chase (32-13), Stanley (38-6), East Rutherford (21-0), Lincolnton (24-6), Belmont (d.T-lS), Bessemer City (26-6), and Cherryville (33-6). Steve Baker was the leading Mountaineer scorer and gi'ound gainer, and also was the lop scorer among prep I schools in this area. Pat Murphy was recognized as one of the top quarter backs in the state and defensivemen Hubert McClinnis and l.yn Cheshire, along with end Jimmy Cloninger and Most Valuable Player Richard Gold received recognition throughout the state. McGinnis and Cloninger were listed on All-State lists. IN BASKETBALL — Richard Gold is the boys’ scor ing leader for the third year in succession. Ken Bunkowski.
