Kings Mountain quarterback Derek Smith (7) pitches the ball out in Friday's 53-28 loss to South Point at
Lineberger Stadium in Belmont.
Mounties see red (and Brown)
in 53-28 loss to South Point
By GARY STEWART
Editor of The Herald
Kings Mountain's Mountaineers
played with South Point's Big Red
Machine for a quarter Friday
night at Belmont’s Lineberger
Stadium.
Dave Farquharson’s Mounties
actually led the highly-touted Red
Raiders 14-13 after quarterback
Derek Smith ran a 14-yard touch-
down around right end as the first
quarter expired.
NISSAN
IT'S...
But over the next 26 minutes
and 43 seconds, the Red Raiders
scored five unanswered touch-
downs and routed the
Mountaineers 53-28 for their sec-
ond straight lop-sided victory.
The Raiders had opened their
season a week earlier with a 55-21
waltz past 2A Lincolnton. Kings
Mountain, which was upset b
East Gaston 30-20, fell to 0-2 head-
ing into another big test at home
Friday night against Gastonia
Forestview (2-0).
Coach Farquharson said he saw
improvement on both offense and
defense, but again mental mis-
takes aided the opponent.
On KM's first possession, a bad
snap on a punt attempt resulted
in South Point taking over posses-
sion at the KM 17 yard line. On
their second play from scrim-
mage, South Point’s talented jun-
ior quarterback Javar Williams
scored from one yard out for a 7-0
lead.

Kings Mountain’s Mountaineers hope
the green, green grass of home will bring
better results when they host a tough
Gastonia Forestview eleven Friday night
at John Gamble Stadium. a
In their first two contests, the
Mountaineers have been outscored 83-48
and have yet to force their opponent to
punt.
Forestview, 2-0, presents another tough
challenge as the Jaguars are looking to
challenge South Point for the Big South
3A championship for the second year in a
row. The two teams shared the top spot
last fall.
And, except for the uniforms, which are
silver and black as opposed to South
Point’s red and white, the Jaguars will
look similar to the Raiders.
Scott Lee, who was a longtime assistant
coach at South Point before landing the
Forestview head job, runs the same
Georgia Southern offense which he helped
the Raiders install several years back.
And, while the players carrying out the
offensive assignments may not be as well
known, in early victories they have been
just as impressive.
Chris Rayfield takes over at quarterback
from the graduated Demario Crosby, who
had been the Jags’ top signal caller the
first four years of their existence.
Superstar running back Mario Dye, who
was also a four-year starter, is also gone
but taking his place is a well-balanced
running attack featuring a half dozen
players.
Willie Moore, an All-Conference line-
backer last year, returns at fullback and
the 195-pounder runs very similar to *
star of the South Point Red Bone offe.
Joey Brown.
