GOOD NET PLAY - Kings Mountain’s Adrienne Woods (18) gave an outstanding effort around the nets but the Lady Mounties fell to Fred T. Foard in five sets in the opening round of the state 3-A volleyball playoffs Tuesday night at the KMHS gym. The KM girls, champions of the Southwestern 3-A Conference Page 16A-KINGS MOUNTAIN HERALD-Wednesday, October 19, 1988 for the third time in four years, finished with a 20-2 overall record. KM Volleyball Champs Ousted In First Round Of 3-A Playoffs Kings Mountain High's girls volleyball team fell to Fred T. Foard 15-11, 15-11, 12-15, 8-15, 15-9 in the opening round of the State 3-A playoffs Tuesday night at the KMHS gym. The loss ended the season for Coach Diana Bridges’ Southwestern 3-A Conference champions. Fred T. Foard, the number three team from the Big Six Conference, goes on to play the winner of the R-S Central- Asheville Erwin game. Kings Mountain, which was undefeated in regular season play, finished with a 20-2 overall record. The KM ladies won the SWC title for the third time in four years and participated in the state playoffs for the fifth year in a row. ‘We were just our worst oppo- nent,” said Coach Bridges. “We served poorly and struggled throughout the whole match. We couldn’t get a serve in and when you can’t serve, you can’t score. I would hate to see our serve percentages.”’ Kings Mountain battled back to win the third and fourth sets after falling behind two games to zero. Kings Mountain held a 9-3 lead in the fifth and deciding game but Fred T. Foard scored % South Point From Page 13-A Hicks said the Mountaineers will stay with their basic running game, running fullback Toby; Deaton and tailback Victor Bell about 15 times apiece. “With the size of our running game, we're not oriented to run inside anyway,” he said. ‘We're pretty much an off tackle and outside football team. We'll just stay with that and hope we can execute well enough to get in the endzone a couple of times.” Hicks said Friday’s game is another “must win situation” MST SOLD and urged Mountaineer fans to follow the team to Belmont. “The crowd has really meant a lot to us and we can use all the support we can get at South Point,” Hicks said. “If we can win these last three games, unless Burns or Shelby ended up tied with us, we’d have the third playoff spot nailed down. We definitely feel like we have the opportunity to win all three of them.” After Friday, the Moun- taineers stay on the road to face East Rutherford and then return home to meet North Gaston.

She started hitting some balls good, made some good passes and showed the kind of leader- ship you need from your team captain. They sparked our com- eback.” Kings Mountain had beaten 4-A power Crest 15-12, 15-7 in regular season-ending action Monday afternoon. “We got a great team effort in that match,” Bridges said. “That’s what so surprising about our play Tuesday. Against Crest, we served exceptionally well and had good composure. I guess we just wore it out one day early.” “But I still have to be proud of this group,”’ she continued. “They worked real hard this year and had a really good season. I'm proud of the ac- complishments they made. We're still a young team and are looking forward to another good year next year.” : ‘We really appreciate the fans’ support Tuesay night,” she added. “It was really good.” 1988010...

The Patriots, 1-5, led 8-6 going into the fourth period but Shelby’s size and depth eventual- i ly wore down the scrappy Patriots and produced two fourth quarter touchdowns. Shelby grabbed an early 6-0 i lead but Kings Mountain took the i lead in the second period when . Robbie Ruff intercepted a pass . and returned it 60 yards for a touchdown and Pat Ross tacked on a two-point conversion run. “Our defense kept us in the game,” said KM Coach David Heffner. ‘Everybody played bet- * ter than they’ve played in any game this year. Shelby just wore us down late in the fourth i quarter.” Kings Mountain’s tough _ defense forced Shelby into numerous mistakes.
