Bring This Ad for an extra 20% ori Your Hometown Jeweler Mounties top Bulldogs 78-57 Even in the midst of a recent five-game losing streak, KMHS basketball coach Larry Sipe said he . could "feel" the improvement in his team and knew it would be just a matter of time before the Mountaineers broke out of their slump. The Mounties did it Tuesday night at home against Burns, blast- ing the Bulldogs 78-57 for their first Southwest 3-A Conference victory. The Mountaineers, now 1- 3 in league play and 5-9 overall, are idle Friday and travel to Shelby next Tuesday. "Burns was a little short-handed because they were playing without their All-Conference forward Shion Strong," Sipe said. "But, even with that, I thought our guys were deserving of the victory." The Mountaineers jumped out front and were never headed. They led 18-12 at the quarter break, 31- 22 at halftime and 51-37 going into the fourth quarter. Led by junior All-Conference star Marquiz Williamson, who had 25 points and six rebounds, the Mountaineers shot a sizzling 56 percent from the floor, including 6- of-10 from three-point range. And, for the first time this year, they out- rebounded their opponent, if just by one rebound. "Our guys have really been prac- ticing extremely hard and I contin- ued to have good feelings about this team even during that five- game losing streak," Sipe said. "And, I will continue to feel good about them the rest of the year be- cause we do have some good ath- letes and most of those kids have a really big heart." Justin Jones chipped in 17 points Tuesday and sophomore Sharee Hopper added 12 points and five boards. "Hoper has improved every time he's gone out on the floor," Sipe said. "Through 14 games he's shooting 61 percent from the floor." The Mountaineers’ shooting per- formance Tuesday was the best it's been and the defense continued to play well. KM's pressing defense has resulted in an average of 24 turnovers per game for the opposi- tion. "We feel like we have to force turnovers to equal out our rebound- ing disadvantage,” Sipe said. "We shot the ball better from the perimeter than we have in the last five games. We've got to shoot it well. "For some mysterious reason, our perimeter shooting left us dur- ing that five-game losing streak," he added. "But even during that time I could see good things. I could see the size of the heart those kids have. We're like a flock of geese. We've got to hang together and stay in formation and have to have someone at the point that's going to lead us." With the first SWC victory in the bag, Sipe says his team will be concentrating on placing in the top four in the conference and qualify- ing for the state playoffs for the ninth straight year. "Right now, South Point hasn't won a game and we're one of three others that have won one," he said. "When report cards come out it could injure some of the other teams. Shelby was hit hard, losing three starters and two off the bench, and Burns was hit hard with the loss of Strong. "The way this ball bounces, sometimes it's a little strange and anything can happen. If we contin- ue shooting it well and our inside people continue to improve we can look to be in the playoffs. That's certainly one of our goals and it's not out of the realm of possibility." dedeok Kings Mountain's girls fell be- hind early and couldn't catch up in losing their third game in four out- ings, 48-43. Burns improved to 3-0 in the conference. Natasha Lawrence scored 14 points and Natasha McIntosh 12 for the Lady Bulldogs. Freshman Tameeka Anderson led the Mountaineers with 13, followed by Dawn Hardin with 12 and Christy McCleary with 10. GIRLS GAME KM (43) - Anderson 13, Hardin 12, McCleary 10, Goforth 4, Wilson 1, Champion 1. B (48) - McIntosh 12, Lawrence 14, Privett 9, Webber 6, Fraziel 5, Gant 2.

B (57) - Scott 1, Lockhart 2, Pruett 7, Brown 2, Clark 18, Lovelace 3, Phelps 7, Vinson 17. Jayvees whip R-S and Burns Kings Mountain High's JV bas- ketball team broke a two-game los- ing streak-during-the past-week with victories over R-S Central and Burns. Ronny Funderburke's Mountaineers whipped R-S::88-78 Friday afternoon and came from behind in the fourth quarter to beat Burns 63-58 Tuesday. Rodney Falls scored 35 points, Jarvis Bell 13, Steve Surratt 11 and Marcus Bell 9 in the win over R-S. "Steve Surratt had his best game of the year on both offense and de- fense," Funderburke said. "Marcus Bell controlled the boards for us and Rodney Falls had another good offensive night." Kings Mountain jumped to a 17- 15 lead in the first quarter and led by 49-32 at the half and 69-48 go- ing into the fourth quarter. Kings Mountain trailed Burns 48-45 after three periods Tuesday but came back to win behind a bal- anced scoring and rebounding game. Falls led the way on offense with 17 points, jarvis Bell had 14, Marcus Bell 10 and Surratt 8. Marcus Bell had 10 rebounds and Surratt 7. The Mountaineers, 2-2 in the Southwest Conference and 5-6 overall, travel to Shelby Tuesday. Abbey Plaza Ctr. 825-6982 xe ogg
