| N7 Page 4B-THE KINGS MOUNTAIN HERALD-Thursday, July 19, 1990 LEGION From Page 2-B to tie the game at 6-all. With the outfielders back, Plonk's routine fly ball to left center fell in for a hit. After falling behind 0-2 to Bullock, both KM runners advanced a base on a passed ball so Bolick decided to intentionally walk the KM shortstop to pitch to Crook. Kings Mountain had taken a 3-0 lead in the first on singles by Daniel Honeycutt, Chris Henson and Chris and Chad Plonk but Caldwell bat- tled back to tie the game in the fourth. Shawn Fox clubbed a solo homer in the second to make it 3-1 and Post 29 added two more in the fourth on RBI singles by Jeff Causey and Fox. Crook and Eric Peppard beat out infield hits and Crook later scored when pitcher Keith Allen bounced out to first to give KM a 4-3 lead in the bottom of the fourth. Caldwell County scored three unearned runs in the top of the fifth to take a 6-4 lead but KM tied it again in the bottom of the inning on long solo home runs by Chris and Chad Plonk. Allen went the distance to pick up his fifth win against two losses and pitched well. His oly bad in- ning was the fifth when Caldwell scored all three of its runs without benefit of a hit. KM committed four of its five errors in the fifth. SUNDAY'S GAME By innings: R-H-E KM 000 000 0 0-2-0 CC 000010x 1-2-0 Plonk and Crook; Wallace and Haire. WP - Wallace (6-0). LP - Plonk (3-2).

SEASON From Page 3-B Seminole College in Florida and Keith Allen and Chip Cash plan to sign with Montreat-Anderson. "The legion program gave those people the extra amount of publici- ty that they needed to get a college scholarship," Clark said. "I know for a fact that the collegiate careers of those three players were decided during legion ball. That's always the primary goal of coaches, whether it's in high school or a summer program, to try to help a young man get a chance at a free education.” Clark had nothing but praise for legion officials and others who worked hard to raise the funds to finance the program and support it throughout the season. "The community support was tremendous," he said. "We had sponsors and a lot of business peo- ple who were concerned about our success and stayed in constant con- tact with us to: see if they could help us. Our legionnaires supported us very well. They supplied us with exactly what we needed when we needed it, and I think Legion Post 155 is to be commended for jump- ing in with both feet and making this thing a success. "I can't say enough about all Jimmy Littlejohn and Gene Tignor did to make this program a success. They were the backbone of the program. It was so nice, as a coach, not to have to worry about booking officials and transportation, and all the other things that you have to worry about as a high school coach. They did it all and did an outstanding job of if. "I just feel like we had the total support of the whole town," he added. "We feel real fortunate to have had this experience."
