"They've got the best speed
we've seen so far," says Coach
Hicks. "We'll have a play our best."
The Mountaineers will go into
the contest without the services of
two of their three quarterbacks.
Both Ryan and Andy Hollifield
suffered knee injuries in the second '
half of last week's game at East
Lincoln. Timmy McClain, a talent-
ed junior, will get the starting nod
for the Mountaineers.
After this week's contest, the
Mountaineers will have an open
date and then open Southwestern
3-A Conference play on September
29 at home against R-S Central's
Hilltoppers.

Junior Varsity Drops Opener 7-0
Kings Mountain High's junior
varsity football team fell to East
Lincoln 7-0 in its season opener
last Thursday night at John Gamble
Stadium.
Coach John Bumgardner said he
was pleased with his players’ open-
ing game performance but warned
that they'll have to play "much bet-
ter" in order to defeat Crest this
Thursday at 7 p.m. at Gamble
Stadium.
Kings Mountain took the open-
ing kickoff last week and drove it
inside the East Lincoln 10. But on
a fourth and long play, the
Mountaineers were stopped short
of a first down on the four yard
line.
GOOD DEFENSE - Kings Moutitain pitcher Kelly Stepp makes a
"We looked good early, but just
couldn't put the ball in the end-
zone," Bumgardner said. "Maybe
that's because of our youth and in-
experience."
Bumgardner said he was pleased
with the play of Robbie Ruff at
tailback and cornerback, David
Jenkins at offensive and defensive
tackle, and Chris Davison on de-
fense and special teams. Craig
Hammett recovered two fumbles
for the Mountaineers.
"Pat Ross played a good game in
the backfield," Bumgardner said,
"and so did our quarterback, Diron
Bell. We saw a lot of good things.
Our main concer right now is that
good throw to gun down a Burns runner who hit a slow bouncer just
inside the first base line in Thursday's game at KM Junior High.
KM won 20-5.

"We expect a strong Crest team
to come in here this week," he
added. "They have a good quarter-
back who loves to throw the ball,
and they also have a real versatile
running attack. They mix their
plays up a lot and they have one of
the best jayvee teams they've had
in years. We'll have to control their
running game and not let the quar-
terback go deep on us if we expect
to win.

in our offense to try to get more
