Narrative:According to the pilot, he had soloed the previous week, and he wanted to practice takeoffs and landings. He said he was uncomfortable with his landing approach to the runway, and elected to make a go-around. The airplane was at a low airspeed when he applied full power, and it yawed to the left. The pilot said the airplane stalled and impacted terrain on the left side of runway.
Probable Cause: the student pilot's failure to maintain aircraft control and adequate airspeed during the go-around resulting in an inadvertent stall. Contributing to the accident was the low airspeed and altitude.
