The loss left ihe Mounties at 4-2 in the conference and in a tie for second place with Shelby and South Point. East Gaston took over sole possession of first palce with a 5-1 record.

The visitors struck for six runs in the fourth off KM relief pitchers David Looney and Tommy Bat chler, added three more in the fifth and five in the sixth. All four of the Mountaineer runs were driven in by senior standout Robert Anderson, who slammed a three-run homer in the third and plated the fourth run with a sacrifice fly in the fifth. He was officially 2-for-2 for the night. The homer was his third of the year. Righthander Leard Keeter worked the first three innings for the Mounties.
