It’s Close, But Mounties
Whip Cherryville, 71-67
Kings Mountain’s Mountaineers
Tuesday night ran into an entirely
different Cherryville team than
the one they defeated 93-52 dur
ing December.
Though the unbeaten Mounties
jumped' off to a 26-9 lead in the
first period, the homestanding
Ironmen battled back to -make a
game out of it before falling, 71-
67, in a Southwestern Conference
contest.
Senior All-Cotiferehcfe* ace Otis
<King) Cole led the Mountaineer
victory with 28 points, but Charles
Barnes and Phillip Francis., who
scored 12 points each, actually
won the game with clutch foul
shooting in the final minutes.
After blazing away in llie first
period, the Mounties turned cold
and by halftime the Ironmen had
cut the difference to 14 points.
43-29.
The Mounties widened the gap
by; tw'o points in the third period
arid led by 16 points, .58-43, head
ing into the fourth period. How
ever. the Mounties elected to slow
down the tempo and Cherryville’s
67-65, with less than a minute
remaining but four straight loul
shots by Francis put the victory
on ice.
Senior Dan Stroup and sopho
more Dennis Tate led the Ironmen
with 22 and 21 points, respectively,
and both played outstanding
games off the boards, as did Cole
and Jewel Watson of the Moun
tainoer.s.
The victory was the 14th straight
overall for Coach Bob Hussey’s
five and their 12th straight in
SWe play. Cherryville is now 5-7
in the conference and 6-8 overall,
but they’re by far the most im
proved team in the league, a.s
their last two performances will
attest. They played .sec'ond place
Shelby off its feet Friday night
before bowing, .57-52.
Kings Mountain’s girls played
one of their better games in the
opener, hut fell 26-23. The KM
lassies held a 17-16 lead after
three periods and led by 23 20 at
one time in the fourth period
before Cherryville pulled it out.
Glenda Bush scored 12 points

BOYS GAME
Two school scoring records fell
here Friday night as Kings Moun
tain’s Mountaineers whipped I.in-
colnton, 101-81, for their 13th
straight victory.
The 101 iK)ints established a
new school scoring record, eras
ing the previous record of lOO
scored in
East Rutherford two yc-ars ago.
And senior .scoring fla.sh Otis |
Cole, a sure bet for All - State |
honors, e.stablished a mnv individ
ual Scoring rdcord, hitting 39
points in breaking the old mark,
of 38, s(‘t by George Adams
against Shelby during the 1967-
68 season.
Cole, in br€»aking his personal
! high of 36 in addition to Adams'
I school record, hit for 15 field
goals and nine of 12 free thri)ws
I as the Mountaineers blazed to
their ninth straight victory over
a Lincolnton squad. |
Cole dropped in 27 points in
the second half after scoring only i
12 in the first two periods. He ac
complished the record^ feat wiyie
sitting out a goodly portion of
the game,as Coach Bob Hussey I
substituted freely.
The Mountaineers were never
in trouble, leading by 20 points,
53-33. at halftime. The .53 half
time points were the most scored
against a Mountaineer team all
season. Their previous high was
.50 against Cherryville in a 93-52
waltz.
Two other players scored in
double figures for the Mountain
eers, who maintained their twx)-
game lead over Shelby, which
nipped Cherryville 58-50.
Charles Barnes came through
with 18 points while Phillip
Francis added 12. Ten Mountain
eers scored. Substitute Chuck Car
penter’s jump shot put KM over
the century mark in the final
seconds and gave them their
school record of 101 points.
The Lincolnton girls, coming
into the game in a three-way tie
for first place with Burns and
R-S Central, won easily in the
opener, whipping the Mountain-
jc-ttes by 40-23. Debbie Murphy’s
119 points led the winners while
(71) i Carolyn Mitchem’s six markers
28; topped the Mountaineltes.
