The Kings Mountain Herald
KMHS is not selling magnets:
Carolina, Wake looking good
Kings Mountain High foot-
ball coach and athletic director
Ron Massey reports that a com-
pany headquartered in Texas is
selling magnets with Kings
Mountain High football sched-
ules printed on them, but the
school system has nothing to do
with the promotion.
Massey said he learned of the
situation when a couple of peo-
ple in the neighborhood called
him to ask when they would re-
ceive their magnets. According
to Massey, they were told that
the company would give the
school 10 percent of the pro-
ceeds from the sale, and send
the magnets to the school.
The company's solicitation is
apparently legal, Massey said,
but he wants the community to
know that the school system is
not involved in it.
Massey urges any other per-
sons who have been solicited
about this promotion to call him
at 734-KMHS ext. 35.
"Anytime anyone is con-
cerned about solicitations they
should keep in mind that unless
it is on our school system letter-
head saying we're endorsing it,
that we have nothing to do with
it," he said.
A peek around the world of
college football:
Caro-lines - New North
Carolina Coach Carl Torbush
has his work cut out for him
this year. Most of his offensive
and defensive line and sec-
ondary were wiped out through
graduation, and one key player
(Shelby’s Robert Williams) de-
clared for the NFL draft a year
early.
To complicate matters even
more, tight end Alge Crumpler,
who probably would have been
on a pile of preseason All-
1991

American lists, was injured dur-
ing spring practice and will
miss the entire season. Allen
Mogridge of Sevierville, TN,
who is untested on Saturday af-
ternoon, is set to take over the
position but the word from the
Hill is that defensive end
Ebenezer Ekuban, who played
tight end until a couple years
ago, may play about 15 snaps a
game on offense. Sophomore
Dauntae’ Finger of Newton-
Conover is also expected to see.
a lot of action.
Despite the losses, Torbush,
who is one of the nicest guys
you'll ever meet, is a hard
worker and a dedicated football
coach and Christian, and he will
succeed. In fact, experts are so
impressed with the UNC pro-
gram right now they have them
picked once again to challenge
Florida State for the ACC cham-
pionship.
The key player for the Tar
Heels will be senior quarter-
back Oscar Davenport, who is
coming off an ankle injury suf-
fered late in the season against
the Seminoles. He's an excellent
scrambling and passing quar-
terback and he has one of the
top receiving corps in the na-
tion in Na Brown, L.C. Stevens
and Jason Peace. The Heels are
so deep in good receivers that
freshman whiz Chesley Borders
of Crest will probably be red-
shirted.

Here A Are A Few Tips That
Mash You Get Through
e Anniversary of Your
Loved Ones Loss
% Allow yourself to feel the pain that
this day brings. Take the day off from
work. Talk about it with a loved one
or a friend. Don’t pretend it’s not
happening. And as before, rely on your
faith. Ask your minister to add you to
the prayer list and request that friends
remember you in their Sunday worship
service.
% Don’t be afraid to live with your
memories. To help with the grief, look
back and cherish all the things that
made your loved one so special to you.
% Celebrate your effort to move on.
When the pain begins to lessen, count
your blessings. Go ahead and force
yourself to plan one thing about your
future. Take a vacation, celebrate a
holiday or just have lunch with a friend.
You've made it this far and try to
remember there is light at the end of the
tunnel.

On the interior line, the Heels
are so green that Bryant Malloy,
a 6-3, 290-pound true freshman
from Crest, is listed as third
string guard and center on the
preseason depth chart and
could see some action, but
Torbush says the talent is there
and the only thing lacking is
game day experience.
Defensively, despite losing a
crop of good players like line-
man Greg Ellis, linebackers
Brian Simmons and K Mays,
and people like Robert
Williams, Greg Williams and
Omar Brown in the secondary,
the word from the Hill is that
the Heels could be better than
they were last year when they
ranked in the top five in the
country in all defensive cate-
gories. Cornerback Dre Bly is
being touted as a Heisman
Trophy candidate, Keith
Newman, Sedrick Hodge and
. Brandon Spoon are regarded as
the top linebacking corps in the
country; by several publications,
and tackles: Marcus Dow and
Russell Davis and end Mike
Pringley are head hunters. Also,
look for Sherrod Peace, a 280-
pound Northern Durham prod-
uct who. transferred in after
Christmas from Gulf Coast
Junior College, to be one of the
best defensive players in the
country.
Torbush, who will continue
his role as defensive coordina-
tor as well as head coach, says
athletically that this year’s team
is as good as last year’s which
finished 11-1 and ranked fourth
in the nation.
“They just have to be produc-
tive on the field,” he said.
“Athletically, this year’s team is
every bit as good as last year’s,
but they have not done it yet.
Very few programs could lose
what we did on offense and de-
fense and still feel like they can
ie a Gg aaa BO
}
August 13, 1998
be competitive and I think we
really can.”
Deacon Dandies - Several
area players will be seeing a lot
of action for Wake Forest this
fall, and they should help the
Deacons to their best season yet
under fifth year coach Jim
Caldwell.
Caldwell, who coached under
several coaching legends that
won national championships,
led his Deacons to a 5-6 overall
record last year. They led most
of their games at halftime but
fell apart late in the game. That
was due mostly to young mis-
takes as Caldwell had a lot of
freshmen and sophomores in
the starting lineup.
One of the Deacons' leaders
this year will be senior corner-
back Dameon Daniel of East
Rutherford, who will be a
strong candidate for All-ACC
honors.
Another area product who
may see some action is back-up
placekicker Tyler Ashe of
Shelby. Ashe is a redshirt fresh-
man who did a good job in the
recent spring game.
He doesn't have any area con-
nections, but look for Deacon
quarterback Brian Kuklick to be
among the passing leaders in
the ACC, and in the nation.
Because of a tougher sched-
ule, the Deacons will be hard-
pressed to improve on their
record, but they will be greatly
improved in their game day
performance. They have a legit-
imate shot at finishing in the
top four or five in the ACC, and
possibly even going bowling.
