Mounties Whip
Chase Monday
Kings Mountain High’s two
varsity basketball teams broke
open close games in the second
half Tuesday night in a double
victory over East Rutherford at
the KMHS gym.
The Mountainettes scored a
75-57 victory in the opener to
maintain sole possession of se
cond place in the Southwestern
3-A Conference, and the Moun
taineers scored a 76-66 win to
stay a game ahead of R-S Cen
tral in the race for first place.
The second “game of the
year” comes up Friday night,
when the two local fives journey
to R-S. A victory by the boys
would clinch a tie for the regular
season SWC title, but a loss
would put KM and R-S in a tie
for first.
Sheryl Goode played her best
game of the year for the KM
girls Tuesday, tossing in 26
points. The teams were tied at
33-all at the half, but a 21-10
scoring advantage in the third
period turned the game around
for the Mountainettes.
Trina Hamrick and Diane
Williams added 12 points each
and Bridget Glass and Tammy
Bolton added eight each as the
Mountainettes went on their big
gest scoring spree of the season.
ljuana Watkins led the Lady
Cavaliers with 17 and Sandi Ab
bey added 13.
The victory gave the Moun
tainettes an 114 conference
record and 12-7 overall mark,
and it was their eighth win in a
row. They are three games
behind R-S Central in the SWC
race.
Demetrius Goode and Gerald
Byers scored 20 points apiece
and Carl Smith and Paul Ingram
added 16 and 12, respectively, to
lead the Mounties to their 18th
win in 19 outings in the
nightcap. The victory gave
Coach John Blalock's charges a
15-0 conference record.
The Mountaineers, though,
had a much tougher time with
the Cavaliers than they did in
their earlier meeting before
Christmas, when KM scored a
10048 victory.
East Rutherford, led by Benji
Camp’s game-high 28 points,
broke to an early lead and held a
one-point 32-31 advantage at in
termission. Kings Mountain
outscored the Cavs 20-14 in the
third period to take a 5146 lead
into the final eight minutes.
