CONWAY — The Conway School Board got checkmated on Monday evening — and they liked it.
Kennett High sophomores Chani Mores and Kate Keefe, also known as robotics team 5106C, were recognized by the school board for receiving the Excellence Award for the best all-around robot at the VEX Robotics NH/VT State Championships on Feb. 17 at Manchester Community College, topping 72 other teams to earn an invitation to the 2018 robotics world championship.
