district tournament Friday night at Tryon’s Warllck
Field. The KM all-stars play Cape Fear of Wilmington
Saturday at 6 p.m. In the opening round of the state
tournament at Bessemer City.
Dixie Youth Stars
Play Cape Fear Team
Kings Mountain’s
American League All-
Stars will play Cape Fear
Saturday at 6 p.m. In the
opening round of the State
Dixie Youth Major League
tournament at the
Bessemer City Dixie Youth
Park.
The local nine won the
right to play In the state
tourney last week when
they won the District
Three title In the double-
elimination tourney at
'Tryon’s Warllck Field.
Kings Mountain finished
third In last year’s state
tourney at WhltevUle.
KM, coached by David
Plonk, Bob Short and
Gerald McDaniel, went
unbeaten through last
week’s district field and
defeated the KM National
Leaguers 11-4 In the
championship game.
'Tommy Batchler hurled
the win and Jerry Mc
Daniel led the hard-hitting
plate attack with 3-for-3.
Including a homer.
Kings Mountain will be
fielding one of Its better
state tourney teams. The
all-stars are blessed with
good hitters as evidenced
by their five home runs In
the district championship
game.
Kl.igs Mountain’s 16
year old Babe Ruth all
stars open play In the state
tournament Friday night
at South Iredell High
School In Statesville.
KM will play Alexander
County’s all-stars at 8 p.m.
Coaches Jim White, Kyle
Smith and Don Bills expect
to be strong In pitching and
defense and adequate In
the hitting department.
Kings Mountain has been
preparing for the state
event for three weeks. The
local nine did not have to
compete In any district or
area tournaments because
they’re the only 18 year old
team In Area B.
The winner of the
Statesville tournament will
earn a berth In the
Southeast Reglonals
beginning next weekend In
Charlotte.
"I expect the state field
to be pretty evenly
balanced,” said White,
who coached a 13 year old
team to a third place finish
In the Southeast five years
ago. "With Charlotte
hosting the regional,
they’ll not be competing In
the state, so we should
stand a real good chance.”
Ricky Proctor, who
hurled lor the local high
school nine last spring, wUl
probably get the pitching
assignment against
JIM WHITE
Alexander County.
"We have a real good
pitching staff,” said White.
’’Along with Proctor,
we’ve got Todd Blalock,
who also did some pitching
for the high school, and
Mike Dover, a hard
thrower from
Blacksburg.”
Other KM all-stars In
clude Terry Chapman,
Alan Van Dyke, Darrell
Sisk, Mike Hayes, Larry
Pearson, Gary Thompson,
James Leach, Novell
Young, Scott Bowen, Scott
Buchanan, Reno Setzer,
Curtis Foster and Calvin
Camp.
