The two local teams lost a doubleheader to York in their last outing on De cember 7. The bleachers for the KMHS gym still haven’t arrived, so the games will be played at the Cen tral gymnasium. The opener will get underway at 7:00. Mountaineer Coach Don Park er reports that there might be a few changes in his lineup. Negro freshman Kenny Mitchem, who •missed the final pre-Christmas game against Lowell, has been nursing an ankle injury and might not be back into full swing by Tuesday. Mitchem has been practicing since Tuesday but is still favor ing the injury. Parker has been playing junior Tommy Finger in his place. Senior Scott Cloninger has been working out at center and Parker reports that he might be at either center or forward. “If Mitchem is ready, said Coach Parker, “the lineup will probably be about the same.” As of now, guards Nelson Con nor and Neal Cooper have the only two set positions. Connor is the team's leading scorer and Cooper has shined os a ballhandl- er and playmaker es well as de fensive man. The Mountaineers carry a 3-2 record into the final pre-heason game They have defeated Bes semer City twice, split with Lo well and lost to York. Kings Mountain’s girls sport a 2-1 record and wUl go into Tues day's game as the underdog. The Mountainettes suffered a 35-24 loss to the Lady Dragons their last time out. Coach Bob Hussey says that his lineup will probably look the same but added that sophomore Susan Howell will probably see plenty of action.
