Mack scored on a 76- yard run In the first period and returned an In tercepted pass 90 yards for a second period score to give the Mountaineers a 13- 0 victory. It was the third straight win for the Mounties (and their third straight shutout) and the first loss In foiu* games for the Cavaliers, who fell out of a share of first place In the Southwestern 3-A Con ference. The game, postponed from Friday night because of heavy rains, was played on a muddy, slippery Gamble Stadium turf, and except for Mack’s two long runs It showed In the rushing department. The Mounties gained only 140 yards rushing. Including 101 In five carries for Mack. But, both defenses played exceptionally well. Ihe Mountaineers com pletely shutoff East fullback Dennis Welsey, who had gained over 400 yards in the three previous outings. The KM defense, led by Mack, Glenn Carroll, Mark Schuman, Jet Jamerson, and others. held him to 26. Kings Mountain scored what turned out to be the winning touchdown on their second possession. Bast Rutherford had punted Into the endzone, giving KM the ball on the 20. Avery Smith, who finished with 62 yards rushing In 12 carries, circled left end for five. Then the left side of the KM line opened a huge hole and the fleet-footed Mack stormed through and raced down the home sidelines for paydirt. Tony Boyce booted the point-after for a 7-0 lead. East Rutherford’s only drive came early In the second period when the Cavaliers moved to the KM 20. But on a fourth down pass. Mack picked off a Mark Whitaker pass and raced down the home sidelines again for the final six points. The victory moved the Mountaineers Into a logjam for second place, one game behind league leading South Point, which remained unbeaten with a 13-7 win over Shelby. Kings Mountain, Shelby, East Rutherford and R-S Central now share the runner-up spot with 2-1 conference marks. The Mountaineers hit the road again Friday, facing an Improved Crest team which last week knocked off Chase 10-7.
