Ward 5 incumbent councilman Jay Rhodes is challenged by Ronald Hum-
phries. Ward I councilwoman Annie Thombs is unopposed for reelection A county-wide sales tax referendum is also on the ballot. If approved, the present tax of 6.75 percent would go up to 7 percent and apply to all persons shopping in the county. County commissioners called for the referendum in a resolution adopted August 4. They said funds raised would benefit educational and community projects. Elections Director Clifton Philbeck said that Gaston County voters living in Kings Mountain will be allowed to vote at the Kings Mountain early voting location only.

members are free. This comedy is about five less-than-stellar students who meet to work on their group English project. Their assigned reading: Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird. Unfortunately, not one has read the book. In fact, nobody even
brought a copy of the book along. Worst of all, they’re not exactly sure what the title of the book even is! Thus, begins a hilarious series of guesses and assumptions which culminate in a massive conspiracy theory about the book and the true threat of mockingbirds!

Insurance Commissioner Mike Causey reminds Medicare beneficiaries to compare and evaluate their current plans and make necessary changes during the annual Seniors’ Health Insurance Information Program (SHIIP) Open Enrollmwnt. Medicare plans and prices change. It is important for Medicare beneficiaries to take advantage of the Open Enrollment Period by contacting local SHIIP counselors to save money, improve your coverage or both. The Open Enrollment Period began on Oct. 15 and runs for eight weeks to give you enough time to review and make changes to your Medicare coverage. Changes must be made by Dec. 7 to guarantee your coverage will begin without interruption on Jan. 1, 2020. It’s important to contact your local SHIIP counselor before deciding about coverage because you may be able to receive more affordable and better Medicare health and/or drug plan options in your area. For example, even if you are satisfied with your current Medicare Advantage or Part D plan, there may be another plan in your area that covers your health care and/or drugs at a better price. SHIIP is a division of the North Carolina Department of Insurance and offers free, unbiased information about Medicare, Medicare prescription drug coverage, Medicare Advantage, long-term care insurance and other health insurance issues. In addition to helping Medicare beneficiaries compare and enroll in plans during the Open Enrollment Period, SHIIP counselors can help people find out if they are eligible for Medicare cost savings programs. Here are some of the ways to review and compare plans available for 2020: • Get one-on-one help from- your local SHIIP office by calling the Patrick Senior Center in Kings Mountain at 704-734-0447. • Get one-on-one help from SHIIP, the Seniors’ Health Insurance Information Program, by calling 1-855408-1212, Monday through Friday, from 8 am to 5 pm. You can also request in-person assistance in your home county. • Visit www.medicare. gov/find-a-plan to compare your current coverage with all the options that are available in your area and enroll in a new plan if you decide to make a change. • Review the Medicare & You handbook. It was mailed to people with Medicare in September. • Call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227) 24-hours a day, seven days a week, to find out more about your coverage options. TTY users should call 1-877-486-2048. For more information about SHIIP and the Medicare Open Enrollment- Period, call 1-855-408-1212 or visit www.ncshiip.com.
Daylight Saving Time ends November 3 Daylight Saving Time ends at 2 am on Nov. 3 when the clocks fall back one hour and give most Americans an extra hour of sleep. The other impact is that it gets dark earlier, too. According to livescience.com, “Benjamin Franklin suggested the idea back in 1784, as a way to economize on sunlight and burn fewer candles during winter
mornings and nights, but the practice did not become steadily official in the United States until Congress passed the Uniform Time Act in 1966, with the same intention of saving energy.” Changing the time by as little as an hour can impact circadian rhythms and impact sleep. Loss of sleep is attributed to increased automobile accidents, workplace
accidents, cyberloafing (surfing the web on work hours), and headaches. Whether or not those assertions are true, it is best to plan now for the end of Daylight-Saving Time and ease into the new schedule over the next week by going to bed a little earlier each night to avoid the dramatic change.

THE STORY: Charles Schulz’s beloved comic comes to life in Clark Gesner’s classic musical, You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown. The whole gang is here: bossy Lucy is hopelessly in love with piano prodigy Schroeder who doesn’t give her the time of day, perfectionist Sally is still mocking blanket-toting Linus, Snoopy is in the doghouse, and “blockhead,” himself, Charlie Brown, is in rare form. Brief vignettes span the months from Valentine’s Day to Beethoven Day, from wild optimism to utter despair. In this revised version, with additional music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa and dialogue by Michael Mayer, the sweet, joyful innocence of the Peanuts gang is maintained, but a fresh insouciance and playfulness is revealed. The new script features two new songs,
particularly funny dialogue, and new, catchy orchestrations. Whether you’re keen to fly with the Red Baron, moon over the Moonlight Sonata, or just do your best to find “Happiness,” You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown is a crowd-pleasing classic. Kings Mountain Little Theatre, Inc. is a volunteer based, 501c3 tax-exempt community theater. It owns and operates the Joy Performance Center and the Liberty Mountain Garden. It is a funded affiliate of the Cleveland County Arts Council and is supported in part by a Grassroots Grant from the North Carolina Arts Council, a state agency.

OPINION

TODAY’S QUOTE:
If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under. – Ronald Reagan
Pieces of Kings Mountain History My Prostate and October in Kings Mountain is a special time of year. We celebrate the Battle of Kings Mountain and Kings Mountain LORETTA High School’s COZART Homecoming within the same month. The connection between the battle celebration and the school have existed since our town was founded. Historically, all celebrations of the Battle of Kings Mountain occurring between 1880 and 1930 were held in the city of Kings Mountain, because the battlefield was too remote and difficult to access. Just five years after the city received its charter, our citizens decided to celebrate the centennial of the Battle of Kings Mountain right here in our community. A meeting was held on Saturday May 24th, 1879 at Mauney Brothers Store and citizens took the initial steps to host a celebration. “Dr. James Wright Tracy was called to the chair; Isaac Walton Garrett and William
Andrew Mauney were appointed secretaries.” Others noted in the meeting were Capt. William T. Reilley Bell, Dr. Benjamin Franklin Dixon, P.S. Baker, Dr. T.J. Walker, F.S. McGinnis, and R. S. Sugg all took roles in planning the centennial celebration according to a pamphlet in the NC State Archives titled, “Battle at King’s Mountain, Proposed Centennial Celebration, October 7, 1880”. Capt. Bell ran a military school and high school where Central now stands. Students in Capt. Bell’s Military School wore gray uniforms with a black stripe down the trouser leg, according to KM Historian Bonnie Mauney Summers. During those early celebrations, Dr. Bell’s students paraded throughout the day near Mountain and Tracy Streets. They were featured in subsequent celebrations until the military school closed around 1890. In 1930, President and Mrs. Hoover arrived in Kings Mountain and immediately reviewed a parade of military forces on Mountain Street, including the North
and South Carolina National Guard and Troops from Ft. Bragg. It was said have been the “largest assemblage of armed forces of the two states since the World War.” Afterward Hoover went to the battleground and spoke to a crowd of 75,000 who gathered there. In 1966, the city’s downtown parade celebrating the Battle of Kings Mountain was covered in the October Herald. The headline stated that 45,000 people attended. Over the years, many parades occurred in downtown Kings Mountain, including one in 1968 featuring armored tanks traveling north along Battleground Avenue toward King Street. Unfortunately, photos of this parade are almost impossible to find. And the ones I have seen are not very clear. Nonetheless I distinctly remember watching that parade sitting upon my father’s shoulders. It was a sight to behold. Kings Mountain High School’s Homecoming parades have occurred on several downtown thoroughfares including Gold Street,
Battleground Avenue, Railroad Avenue, and Mountain Street. Most recently, the parade steps-off on Mountain Street, turning onto Railroad Avenue and culminating at Patriots Park. I hope we always utilize the downtown streets for the Homecoming parades. Thousands of students have lined these streets to celebrate Homecoming over the years and they weren’t the only ones to use these roads. Thousands of our citizens, including our town fathers and mothers, have strolled these streets. And a president and his wife can be counted among them. In the early days of our community, these roads carried citizens downtown to gather provisions, attend church, and socialize while celebrating our community’s history. Whether they gathered to celebrate the Battle of Kings Mountain or the battles on the high school gridiron, Kings Mountain’s citizens remember our history along these downtown streets that we call home.
Looking back
The Anniversary Girls piled into a Corvette in to celebrate the 186th commemoration of the Battle of Kings Mountain for a community parade featured in the Oct. 13, 1966 Herald. The streets were filled with young and old alike and 45,000 people were estimated to have attended. Photo DigitalNC.org

Thyroid Cancer I never wanted cancer who does? Within four months I was diagnosed with thyroid Glenn Mollette cancer and Guest Editorial prostate cancer. Last October 26, my entire thyroid was removed with four malignant nodules. I dreaded that surgery because I knew speech and singing complications could happen because of the proximity of the thyroid to the vocal cords. Some people end up with paralyzed vocal cords for a lifetime. The surgeon assured me he would take his time and utilize extreme caution in protecting my vocal cords but reminded me that the cancer had to be the priority. By the middle of December 2018 my voice was gaining strength and I was starting to exercise a little bit and was overall feeling good. I then had my annual blood work done. The telephone call came from my doctor’s nurse telling me everything looked good except my PSA was 4.7. This was the highest it had ever been in my life. The prior year had been 3.7. I was told that PSA numbers can sometimes fluctuate and that we would need to do another blood test. Three weeks later I did another one on December 27 and found out my score had risen to 5.9. I called my wife who was visiting in Kentucky to tell her, “I’m in trouble.” We decided to act immediately, however, finding a urologist during the Christmas holidays was difficult. I tried six or seven in Evansville, Indiana and Louisville, Kentucky. I ended up finding a doctor named David Levy from Cleveland Clinic. His receptionist said, “He has one opening December 31st, at 2:30.” I explained to her my diagnosis and she explained the only way you and the doctor will know is by a prostate biopsy.” I already had heard fearful reports about prostate biopsies. She very calmly assured me that he had a very gentle technique, and few ever complained. I booked the appointment. I hung up and called my wife back to tell her how we would be celebrating New Year’s Eve. New Year’s Eve I met Dr. Levy and he spent quite a bit of time asking me questions and explained we won’t know anything until I do the biopsy. They got me ready and he removed 18 pieces of my prostate, one small sample at a time. Almost every time he would remove a piece he would say, “Did you feel that?” And every time I said, “Yea, I felt it!!” At that moment that’s not really what I wanted to say however, somehow by the grace of God I managed to control my mouth.

would later explain that often many urologists only take 12 samples, but they miss the cancer by taking too few. “If it’s in there we need to find it,” he explained. I walked out of the Urologist’s office a little sore but was able to drive back to our hotel where I managed to eat dinner and we later found a movie on television that I halfway watched. On January 4, 7:30 in the morning my cell phone was ringing, and I braced myself as I knew it was Dr. Levy. He began by asking me how I was doing today, and I said, “Dr. Levy, go ahead and tell me the report.” “You have two cancers out of 18 samples he reported. One cancer is a 3+3 for a Gleason score of six which is not too bad. However, you have one that is a 3+4 for a Gleason score of 7 or stage 2 cancer which is very concerning. We can monitor and do active surveillance, or we can do a procedure. I don’t recommend surgery for you, but I do recommend either cryotherapy (freeze treatment) or Brachytherapy (radiation seed implant). However, I need to do an MRI and it will be 10 weeks before your prostate will be healed enough to do an accurate MRI. The MRI will show us more if the cancer is spread or if it’s still contained in the prostate. The next ten weeks were agony as I read everything I could find about cancer, treatments, supplements, procedures, side effects, nutrition all mixed with worry. I watched my dear friend die a slow death from prostate cancer just a couple of years ago, so I know prostate cancer can be deadly. In March I had an MRI and found out the cancer was still contained to the prostate. I elected to do the Brachytherapy radiation seed implant procedure by Dr. Jay Ciezki of Cleveland Clinic who does over 300 procedures a year. Years ago, my father-in-law had the procedure done and so I was already a little familiar with it. After the procedure I never stopped walking, working or trying to be active but for a month I was sore and there were side effects, but they weren’t unbearable. Recently, the new blood work revealed my PSA is now .71. The lowest it’s ever been in my life. I still have my prostate which will make PSA. “Everything” is working well. I am back to jogging a couple of miles, working and overall things are normal. One thing that has changed is my awareness and respect...fear of cancer. Cancer can and does recur. My radiation oncologist doesn’t think I’ll ever have it in my prostate again, but he said there’s always a chance it can show up somewhere else later.

He walks in of our first day, with shorts and I returned to my flip flops, hair down to his hotel room where I began shoulders, and a backpack. I my evening prayers. I started found out later it was filled my time praying for this
stranger. While praying for God to move on his heart to change him, I heard God quietly speak to my spirit, “No, Angela pray to change your heart.” At that moment, I grew silent under the weight of conviction. “To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everyone else, Jesus told this Parable.” Like 18:9 NIV. Jesus tells the story of the Pharisees who enter the temple to pray. While there, he looks over to see a tax collector. Tax collectors were considered undesirable. So, in all his self-imposed
righteousness, the Pharisees begin to pray, “God, I thank you that I am not like other people – robbers, evildoers, adulterers – or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.” Luke 18:11-12 NIV. When do you find yourself in the shoes of the Pharisees? We come in many forms, proud of our spiritual achievements, talking down to others, making assumptions of others before we come to know them. The tax collector standing at a distance, beating his breast, and refusing to look up to heaven prays, “God,
have mercy on me, a sinner.” Luke 18:13b NIV. The tax collector, in his humility, pleads for compassion. And, due to the prayer of a convicted heart, he is justified. When I read this passage, I often wonder if the Pharisee’s heart was changed. So, let me finish my story. It is the story of a changed heart. I don’t know when the turn began. Maybe it was the first night of my conviction when I began to repent and pray for God to transform my heart. The second day, I found myself smiling every time this person
would speak. I noticed the hardness that was once there was replaced with compassion. And, by the third day, I was even standing in agreement with the stranger’s suggestions. I left that meeting no longer a stranger, but with a new friend. We often don’t see reality as it is but through our own biases and often distorted lens. Desire to see ourselves and others, not in comparing to others, but in light of God. We are not a product of our achievements and position in life. We are a product of God’s divine mercy.

Fall Festival brings smiles at the Woman’s Club One of the best-loved autumn traditions is the Kings Mountain Woman’s Club’s Fall Festival, often referred to by longtime residents as the Floral Fair. The event was held on Wednesday, October 16. This year’s theme is Hello Autumn and was the clubs 116th celebration of the event. From the smiles on the faces of those who attended, it is easy to see why this Fall tradition is so popular among our
residents. Throughout the day and into the evening, Kings Mountain supporters dropped in to show their support and enjoyed a meal of turkey, dressing and all the fixings. Those who gathered in the dining room had opportunity to visit and catch up with friends they hadn’t seen in a while. Homemade desserts were available and the smiles and good memories they left with were free.

Sheriff Norman’s tips for a safe Halloween Soon our streets will be scattered with little ghosts, g o b lins, and SHERIFF witches ALAN NORMAN trick-ortreating this Halloween. “Halloween should be filled with surprise and enjoyment and following some common-sense practices can keep events safer and more fun,” said Sheriff Alan Norman of Cleveland County. The Sheriff reminds all Cleveland County residents to follow these safety tips: Motorists: • Watch for children darting out from between parked cars. • Watch for children walking on roadways, medians and curbs. • Enter and exit driveways and alleys carefully. • At twilight and later in the evening, watch for children in dark clothing. Parents: • Make sure that an adult or an older responsible youth will be supervising the outing for children under age 12. • Check the sex offender registry at sexoffender.ncsbi. gov/ when planning your child’s trick-or-treat route. You can view maps that pinpoint registered offenders’ addresses in your neighborhood and sign up to get email alerts when an offender moves nearby. • Plan and discuss the route trick-or-treaters intend to follow. Know the names of older children’s companions. • Make sure older kids trick-or-treat in a group. • Instruct your children to travel only in familiar areas and along an established route. • Teach your children to stop only at houses or apartment buildings that are well-lit and never to enter a stranger’s home.
• Establish a return time. • Tell your youngsters not to eat any treats until they return home. • Review all appropriate trick-or-treat safety precautions, including pedestrian/ traffic safety rules. • All children need to know their home telephone number and how to call 9-1-1 in case of emergency. • Pin a slip of paper with the child’s name, address, and telephone number inside a pocket in case the youngster gets separated from the group. Costume Design: • Only fire-retardant materials should be used for costumes. • Costumes should be loose so warm clothes can be worn underneath. • Costumes should not be so long that they are a tripping hazard. • Make sure that shoes fit well to prevent trips and falls. • If children are allowed out after dark, outfits should be made with light colored materials. Strips of retro-reflective tape should be used to make children visible. Face Design: • Do not use masks as they can obstruct a child’s vision. Use facial make-up instead. • When buying special Halloween makeup, check for packages containing ingredients that are labeled “Made with U.S. Approved Color Additives,” “Laboratory Tested,” “Meets Federal Standards for Cosmetics,” or “Non-Toxic.” Follow manufacturer’s instruction for application. • If masks are worn, they should have nose and mouth openings and large eye holes. Accessories: • Knives, swords, and other accessories should be made from cardboard or flexible materials.

Homecoming parade celebrates Mountie Pride By Loretta Cozart As temperatures fell into the 30’s this week, fall finally returned to Kings Mountain just in time for the 2019 Kings Mountain Homecoming Parade downtown. At 3:30 pm, the parade stepped-off on Mountain Street. Fans, friends, parents
and well-wishers lined Mountain Street, Railroad Avenue, and Gold Street leading to Patriot’s Park. The sea of black and gold was interspersed with pink, royal blue, red, and a variety of school colors as students showed pride in their elementary, intemediate, and middle schools that feed
into Kings Mountain High School. Mountie Pride could be seen in the old and young, fans waiving pom-poms and cheering on Kings Mountain High School Football players prior to their Homecoming game at John Gamble Stadium.

Mountaineers dominate winless Green Wave 56-0
Luke Bishop goes around end for a touchdown after catching a shovel pass on KM’s first play from scrimmage in Friday’s win over Ashbrook.
Peyton Fisher’s long run set up KM’s final TD in last week’s win over Ashbrook.
Kings Mountain’s Mountaineers scored on eight of their nine possessions to shutout Gastonia Ashbrook 56-0 in their homecoming game Friday night at John Gamble Stadium. Had it not been for a lost fumble on their sixth possession, the Mountaineers would not have been stopped all night. It was the eighth victory in nine outings for the Mountaineers, who are idle this week before hosting Gastonia Forestview on Fri., Nov. 1 in their final regular season home game. The victory, coupled with a 36-29 Crest victory over Hunter Huss, got the Mountaineers back in the running for the Big South Conference championship. KM had fallen to Huss a week earlier 21-16 but now can throw first place into a tie if they can defeat Forestview and Crest in their final two regular season games. “We played well,” said KM Coach Greg Lloyd. “It was good to get back on the field after not playing well the week before at Hunter Huss. “We were good in all three phases of the game. We dominated both front lines, took care of the ball and tackled well. I was proud of our effort.”
Lloyd’s high school coach at Crest, Mike Stewart, was on the sidelines and was impressed with the Mountaineers and their upgraded facilities. He recalled the 1996 game there between his Chargers and Ron Massey’s Mountaineers which ended in an 8-8 tie. Crest went on to win the state 4A championship. But, on this night he was pulling for his former player and the Mountaineers, who grabbed the momentum on the opening kickoff when Green Wave players left Austin Browning’s kick near the visitors’ sideline alone. Kings Mountain’s Blake Emory recovered it at the Wave’s 18 yard line and on the very first play from scrimmage quarterback Ethan Reid pitched an underhand pass to wide out Luke Bishop and he circled right end untouched for a touchdown. Browning added his first of eight straight PATs to give the Mountaineers a 7-0 lead with just 10 seconds gone off the clock. The Mountaineer defense held Ashbrook to three-and-out on its first three possessions and just one first down on its fourth to build a 28-0 lead at the end of the first quarter and then 35-0 less than two minutes into the second period.
After an Ashbrook face mask penalty on the first play of KM’s second drive, quarterback Ethan Reid hit Quintin Davidson for a 13-yard pass and Rashaard Brooks went up the middle 26 yards for a TD and 14-0 lead. After another Wave three and out, the Mountaineers drove 41 yards in nine plays for a 21-0 lead on Reid’s one-yard sneak. After another three-andout by the KM D, Reid hit James Ussery with a 45yard pass to set up a 16-yard TD pass to Orlando Odums to make it 28-0. A partially-blocked Ashbrook punt covering just 10 yards put KM on offense at its own 43 and the Mountaineers covered the entire distance on two passes from Reid to Kobe Paysour to go up 35-0. Ashbrook’s Tre Byers got off a 52-yard pass to the KM four yard line but an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty following two lost yardage plays covering nine yards put the ball back into KM hands. After a couple of first downs, Reid fumbled and Ashbrook recovered to stop the bleeding a little. But, after big defensive plays by Robert Lipscomb, Javari Rice-Wilson and See MOUNTAINEERS, Page 3B
Mountaineer JVs roll the Green Wave 22-6 Kings Mountain rolled 62 yards in eight plays for a touchdown on the game’s opening drive and went on to defeat the Ashbrook JVs 22-6 for their eighth straight victory Thursday night in Gastonia. The Mountaineers are idle this week and will return to action on Thursday, Oct. 31 at Gastonia Forestview. The Mountaineers kept the ball on the ground for their opening score with Dabrion Dykes, Caleb Holland and JJ Thurman taking
turns running the ball. The Mountaineers picked up four first downs along the way, with the last one coming from Holland on an 18-yard run around left end. Petyon Fisher caught a pass for a two-point conversion and an 8-0 lead. Ashbrook got off a good drive but finally lost the ball on downs at the KM 14 yard line. Holland moved over to quarterback and immediately went 86 yards down the Ashbrook sideline for a touchdown. Kameron Lip-
scomb caught a pass for a two-point conversion and a 16-0 lead that stood at halftime. Chase Ellis scored from a yard out to run the margin to 22-0 early in the third period. The play was set up on a blocked punt after the KM defense held the Green Wave to three and out on the first possession of the second half. Thurman covered 10 yards on two carries and Jake Lloyd accounted for 13 on two totes. Ashbrook managed its
only TD with 7:12 left in the game on a six-yard run. Kings Mountain had another scoring opportunity in the final 1:51 after Fisher broke up a fourth down pass at the Green Wave 11. Thurman got off an 11-yard run to the one, where KM took a knee to end the game. Kings Mountain got a good defensive performance from many players including Jaylan McGill, Lloyd, Fisher, Dariyan Black, Ellis, Deandre Hoyle, Mark Thomasson and Dalton Ledbetter.

Frye to play in 4th championship Kings Mountain High senior tennis standout Madelynn Frye will be playing in her fourth straight 3A state championship tournament Saturday in Burlington. Frye will compete in singles this year after playing doubles with Natalie Lutz the previous three years. The duo won the state championship in 2016. Last year, Frye and Lutz
lost in the quarterfinals. “I know this upcoming singles championship means a lot to her and hopefully she can redeem herself from last year’s loss,” said Coach Rick Henderson. In ’17 Frye and Lutz lost in the state championship. In 2016 Frye and Lutz stunned a lot of tennis teams by going 25-0 and becoming the first duo in KMHS history to win a
state championship in tennis. Henderson said KMHS has had at least one individual to qualify for the state championship for six consecutive seasons including Dylan Ervin and Connor Gibson in ’15, Lutz and Frye in ’16, ’17 and ’18, and Frye in ’19. “This record is one that will stand for decades to come,” Henderson said.

Frye second in Western 3A championship Kings Mountain tennis players Madelynn Frye and Sarah Bell qualified for and played well in last week’s Western Regional tournament. Coach Rick Henderson said the two players worked hard over the last 10 weeks to get their game in shape for the last week or so of their high school careers. The tournament kicked off Friday with Bell facing a tough opponent from West Henderson, Kiki Still, who was the #3 seed. “I noticed Sarah looking very comfortable during the first three games of the first set,” said Coach Rick Henderson. “Sarah went up early in the first set 2-1, but
unfortunately Still started to dominate the match with her forehand shots. Still had a very unorthodox forehand with a vicious top spin that moved Sarah from one side of the court to the other. Unfortunately, she overpowered Sarah and won the first set 6-3.” In the secondeset Still continued to dominate with her shot making and won 6-1. “At the end of the match I shared with Sarah that she had an incredible four-year tennis career by winning 29 singles matches and being defeated only five times.” Frye was seeded #1 overall and looked the favorite to win.

she faced Amira Younce of Watauga and won easily, 6-1, 6-1. “Madelynn’s shot making and her powerful serve and ground strokes proved to be the difference,” Henderson said. In the second round Frye had a much tougher opponent, Amira Younce of Watauga, and won easily by the score of 6-1, 6-1. “Madelynn’s shot making and her powerful serve and ground strokes proved to be the difference in the first round,” Henderson said In the second round she had a much tougher opponent as she faced the #1 player from AC Reynolds, Sophia Kolmel.
“Kolmel was very consistent and kept the ball in play most of the points,” Henderson said. “But Madelynn’s timing, shot making and power was incredible. This was probably Madelynn’s best performance of the tournament. Her serve and ground strokes were impeccable.” The victory qualified Frye for the state championship but she still had to face Meredith Anderson of Enka for the Western title. “She is an awesome tennis player,” Henderson said of Anderson. “Madelynn got the attention of some college scouts as well.” Saturday, Frye continued her quality playing by re-

Kings Mountain edged Hunter Huss in a Big South Conference soccer match last week, 3-2. Christian Quevedo-Johns, Danny Carley and Josh Visoso each scored a goal. Kohen Johnson and Danny Carley each had an assist. Alex Nivens and Dillon Messenger played well on defense. Silas Price had a big game in goal. Kings Mountain improved to 5-4 in the Big South and 5-9 overall.
Kings Mountain High’s women golfers finished fourth in last week’s final Big South Conference match hosted by Forestview and Hunter Huss at Crowder’s Mountain. Crest won the match with a 133 score, followed by Cramer 141, North Gaston 154, Kings Mountain 184, Ashbrook 186 and Hunter Huss 189.

That win moved Frye into the Western finals against Jadyn Kadyk of Watauga. Both entered the match with singles records of 14-0. “A lot of folks were pulling for Madelynn because she had put on a display of tennis like I had never seen her play in singles,” Henderson said. “During warmups I noticed Madelynn still remained herself and was hitting good quality and crisp shots. So when the match started she was very accurate with her shot making and ev-

Kaydyk continued her way into the second set by taking advantage of some unforced errors, and won 6-0. “I know Madelynn is a much better player than she displayed in the finals, but you have to give the Watauga player credit for keeping the ball in play,” Henderson said. Frye carries a 43-2 singles record into the state championship.

Allie McArthur of Crest was named Player of the Year. “I want to thank Kings Mountain Country Club for all their help and support they give to our golf programs,” said Mountaineer Coach Kevin Moss. “Ken Nantz and his staff are always willing to help with scheduling practices and helping with hosting matches at KMCC.”

Day-Day Wilson forced a punt, Reid hit Paysour with passes of 13 and 39 yards – sandwiched around a 20-yard gain by Ricaylen Mack – and the Mountaineers went into halftime up 42-0. Because of the point spread, the clock ran continuously in the second half except for three occasions when Ashbrook players went down with injuries. With the second unit in the game, the Mountaineers still scored on both of their second half possessions with Albert Hope crossing the goal line on runs of six and one yards.
Orlando Odums catches touchdown pass. Coach Lloyd is hoping after this bye week the Mountaineers will have the services of some players who have missed the
last several games with injuries. “Hopefully we’ll be at full strength for the Forestview game and the rest
of the season,” he said. “With Crest beating Huss last week we’re right back in the race. We hold our destiny in our own hands.”

Gardner-Webb Hosts Annual Octoberfest Gardner-Webb University invites families to campus on Oct. 28 for its annual Octoberfest event that will offer children a variety of candy, games and other fun activities. The free evening of entertainment is set for 6-8 p.m. in the Lutz-Yelton Convocation Center on campus. Octoberfest is a fall festival and Halloween-style event for local families that provides a safe place for the community to gather and have fun. Children and their parents can wear costumes to the festival, which includes pizza and drinks for the kids, candy and popcorn for everyone, and a variety of games and crafts. An inflatable obstacle course is part of the fun this year along with other surprises. Mindy Robinson, GWU coordinator for community engagement and student ministries, has organized the event for the last three years. She said that in addition to traditional games— such as corn hole, ring toss

and bowling—other fun activities are planned, including face painting, photo booths, cookie decorating, and mystery games.
Orders participates in White Coat Ceremony
“We have 62 clubs, organizations, athletic teams and classes helping with the event this year,” she observed. “My favorite part is just watching our students love on the kids of our community. They all dress up, just like the kids, and it’s just so fun to watch their childlike spirit emerge as they play the games and participate in the activities right alongside of the kids.” Mikayla Fewster, a junior computer information systems major from Harrisburg, N.C., is helping with a booth sponsored by ServeU. “Our game is going to be a bottle ring toss,” Fewster offered. “I am so excited for Octoberfest, because I absolutely love kids. I love being able to entertain and interact with them. It’s adorable to see the simplest things put smiles on kids' faces.
Tanner Marc Orders, son of Marcus and Robin Hurdt Orders of Kings Mountain, recently donned his white coat during the University of North Carolina School of Medicine White Coat Ceremony in Honor of the Class of 2023 in Chapel Hill on Saturday, October 5, 2019. The purpose of the White Coat Ceremony is to show medical students clarity of the physician’s responsibility to take care
of and care for their patients prior to their entry into the medical community. The medical students also pledge to lead upright lives of compassion and honor. Tanner is a 2018 graduate of Appalachian State Honors College with a Bachelor’s Degree in Cellular Biology. He was one of 190 medical students who were chosen from over 7,000 applicants to attend the School of Medicine in Chapel Hill.

Auxiliary aids will be made available to persons with disabilities upon request 48 hours prior to the event. Please call 704.406.4264 or email servicerequests@gardner-webb.edu with your request.
More than 100 students, faculty and staff will provide candy, games and free activities at Gardner-Webb University annual Octoberfest for for families on October 28.

I'm so thankful that we get to provide a free night of fun for so many children and families.” Senior Taylor Mills from Buies Creek, N.C., likes to participate, because Octoberfest is a way for students to reach out and meet different people in the community. “Be-

cause most of us live on a college campus, many of us do not get to interact with children on a daily basis,” Mills reflected. “I love the fact that I will be able to interact with different kids in our community and help them to have a fun night in a great environment.” She is volunteering with Psi Chi and the Psychology Club to provide an activity called “Fishing
