Second basc- man Mike Smith leads the way with a .366 mark, followed by Fisher .361, Caja Ormand .360), Chris Rider .356, TG Goforth .327 and David R. Jenkins .315. Jenkins has 26 runs batted in. Smith, an ex- cellent lead-off hitter, has scored 33 runs. Fisher tops the mound staff with a 12-0 record and 2.14 ERA. He has won a state record 24 consecu- tive games over the past two sea- sons and has a varsity career mark of 28-1. In 85 innings of work, he has struck out 109 batters. David C. Jenkins has a 6-1 record and 1.46 ERA in 43 innings of work. Although Asheboro has scored 23S ‘runs to 141 for the Mountaineers, Coach Clark says his team has shown the ability to score when it needs to and that, plus good defense, will be the key to the series. "I feel like we are very confident at this point,” says Clark. "When we need to score we've had the ability to do so. Offensively, who- ever we play better be able to get some base hits consecutively be- cause I've never been around a team that plays better defense than we're playing right now." The Mountaineers have commit- ted only 21 errors and have played perfect defense in the state play- offs. Asheboro has committed 32 errors. Clark wanted to play the series Thursday and Friday, and Saturday if necessary, but Asheboro Coach Rick Smith would not agree, obvi- ously thinking he has a stronger pitching staff and can better afford Kings Mountain High baseball coach Bruce Clark cheers his Mountaineers on to victory in Saturday's Western Regionals champi- onship game with South Point at Lancaster Field. Clark hopes to see his men win two more games in the state championship series with Asheboro Friday and Saturday. to play two games in one day. Clark's motive for wanting to play earlier was to keep momentum go- ing. "The intensity of the last two weeks in the playoffs could be lost with such a long delay in playing,” Clark said. "But that's an obstacle we've got to overcome with our mental approach. "The positive thing is that it's great to be back in the state cham- pionship, and an honor to have the kind of kids that we have. It just shows that when you start building teams character and leadership and academics will take you a long way, along with a lot of God-given ability." Playing in front of their home- town fans should also be a big boost for the Mountaineers. "We haven't lost a game here all year, and with the community's support that is being shown we feel like playing in Kings Mountain will be the biggest advantage we'll have," Clark said. "Having been raised about 25 miles from Asheboro, I know for a fact that they will have a good, sol- id baseball team and they will have good athletes. But when it comes to state championships there's al- ways going to be good teams. We've just got to be able to accept that challenge and play our game and not let them dictate how we State parks recreation meeting set in Gastonia The North Carolina Division of Parks and Recreation will hold a public meeting in Gaston Thursday, June 17, to seek infor- mation on the need for recreation resources in the State Parks System, in order to update the State Park Systemwide Plan. The State Parks Act, which es- tablishes the purposes and princi- ples of the State Parks System, was approved by the General Assembly in 1987. The act requires the devel- opment of a systemwide plan iden- tifying the need for growth in the protection of the state's natural fea- tures. The plan, first published in 1988, will be revised every five years.

The Mountaineers won Western crowns in 1935, '41, '69, '80 and '89, and won thc NCH- SAA state championship in 1989. The Mountaineers won the WNCHSAA state championship in 1969. Going into Friday's game, the Mountaineers are 14-2 under Clark in state playoff action. Nothing Beats Our GREAT Prices! also understand they have better than average speed and play very good defense. So, in my opinion the two teams arc very much alike, and if that's the case it should be onc dandy championship serics. "I think that we will have the ad- ‘vantage of playoff experience be- cause of the success that this bunch has had the past two years, not on- ly in high school but in American Legion baseball. I can't sec how Asheboro can have any better pitching than Taylorsville had last - summer in that Legion series, so we feel very confident about being able to handle some pretty good pitching." If the Mountaineers are able to win the state championship, they will accomplish a number of goals never before achieved in Kings Mountain baseball history. Two more victories would give the team 100 victories in five years under Coach Clark, and would give them their fourth 20-win season under Clark. Prior to 1989, Kings Mountain had had only two 20-win Seasons. A victory would also give the team its second state crown in five years. This year's team has already be- come the first team to post back- to-back 20-win seasons and win the Southwestern 3-A Conference championship two years in a row. Previous conference champions at KMHS were in 1935, 1941, 1963, 1967, 1969, 1974, 1980, PERSONNEL SERVICES UNLIMITED, INC. ANNOUNCES THE OPENING OF OUR KINGS MOUNTAIN OFFICE 235 S.
