Chris Wallace booted the first of three perfect extra points to give the Mountaineers a 7-0 lead with 9:16 showing on the first quarter clock. After another R-S punt, it took the Mountaineers only three run- ning plays to drive 73 yards for a 14-0 lead. Senior fullback Shane Logan, who was held to 79 yards in 13 carries but still went over the 600-yard mark for the first half of the season, reeled off a 28-yard run to the R-S 35. Marcus Smith picked up 11 and then went 24 more for the score. An illegal receiver penalty which nullified a pass to Smith and then two incomplete passes forced the Mountaineers to punt on their next possession, but linebacker Jahi Smart recovered a Hilltopper fumble at the 49-yard line to set up KM's final score. After a holding penalty, that drive appeared to be bogged down as well and the Mountaineers went into punt for- mation, but McClain took a short snap from center and hit C.C. Smith across the middle and the former running back turned the pass into a 49-yard scoring play with 6:35 left in the half. For the most part, that was all of the KM offense for the night. McClain hit Tommy Morrow on an 11-yard pass for a first down on the next possession, but once again an illegal receiver penalty brought it back and the Mounties were forced to punt. KM didn't touch the ball again in the first half and was held to just two first downs in the sec- ond half - one on a 13-yard pass from McClain to R.J. Barnes and the other on a 20-yard burst by Logan. The lead was plenty, though, be- cause Kings Mountain's defense turned in its usual fine effort. Led by Smart, Derek Goode, Justin Champion, J.W. Garner, Eric Tate, and others, the Mountaineers time and again turned back the Hilltopper offense, usually limiting them to three plays and a punt. R-S finally dented the score- board with 7:35 remaining when quarterback Ken Hines had to scramble out of the pocket and found sophomore wideout Todd Lattimore 10 yards behind the KM defense for a 37-yard touchdown pass. R-S covered 86 yards in 11 plays for their only sustained drive of the night. The Mountaineers finished with only 126 yards rushing and 95 passing and had the ball for only 34 plays, representing their lowest offensive output since a 28-0 loss to defending state 4-A champion Crest in the second game of the season. from Foothills area are invited to partici- pate by calling the Cleveland County Red Cross Chapter, 704- 487-8594 or fax 704-487-8595.

JVs beat R-S @ @ for first win Kings Mountain High's JV foot- ball team broke into the victory column Thursday with a 21-7 win at R-S Central. Joseph Bell scored on a 50-yard touchdown run, and then picked up a fumble and returned it 55 yards fora score. T.J. McClain scored on an 18-yard run. Mark Roper had a big hit to cause the fumble that Bell returned for a TD. Coach Ron Massey said the KM defense played one of its better games and the offense continued to show improvement. Kings Mountain, 1-4, is idle this week and returns to action next Thursday night at Burns. "Those penalties brought back over 100 yards of offense,” said Coach Massey. "That gets you frustrated." Massey attributed part of the of- fensive problems to the Mountaineers not playing well, but he also gave credit to the R-S de- fense. "We anticipated a Shade 50 from them because that was primarily what they've been in all year," he said. "They gave us another look and just got better at what they were doing. Their two inside back- ers, who were their best football players, did a good job of shutting Shane down on the traps and bel- lies." But Massey was pleased with the Mountaineers' defensive effort against what is a potentially explo- sive R-S offense, and the first-year coach said the special teams also played a big role in the victory. "Our defense controlled them re- al well in the first half, and our special teams put us in good field position," he said. "We had good field position on our first two drives, and that was the key. A lot of that's attributed to the defense stopping them on their first drive. Getting out to a quick start was definitely a plus for us."

"This is going to be a very big football game as far as our chances of getting into the playoffs," he said. "Hopefully we'll have a good following. The fans are doing a great job of helping us.
