Narrative:
The airplane stalled and impacted the ground near the departure end of the runway during the pilot's attempted go around. The pilot reported that on approach, he had been a little high and fast, so he elected to go around. After increasing engine power, the airplane stalled and descended a few feet until colliding with the ground. The pilot reported that no mechanical malfunctions were experienced during the flight. He said his airplane had worked flawlessly, and the accident resulted from his error.

Probable Cause: the pilot's failure to maintain adequate airspeed during an attempted go around, which resulted in a stall/mush and collision with the ground.
