KM’S ‘Second Klnge Mountain High tennlB coach Ed Ghiy hae claimed for the past two years that hli second team Is as good as most other first teams hi the area. Hto second six proved him right last week when they breezed past Bessemer City's first team 8-1 matches played In BC Monday and on the Mountaineer court IViesday. The Mountaineers dropped just one singles match In each outing. "This same Beesemer City team recently defeated Crest of our conference 8-0,’’ noted Quy. “So this this goes to show that our second six are as good as most other first teams. "And, It’s a shame, reaUy, that teams like Crest will be sending six players to the sectional tournament and our second six will have to stay at home.’’ Tom Cox was the only KM player to lose, drop ping a 8-8, 8-3 decision to BC’s top-ranked Benjle Carpenter on Monday and a 7-8, 7-8 loes to Jeff DavU, the Yellow Jackets’ number two man, Tuesday.
