CONWAY — The Kennett High Sports Hall of Fame welcomed seven new members — Sut Marshall, Class of 1959; Mandi Manoogian, ’01; Sarah (Martin) Keyser, ’01; Jennifer (Luoma) McCracken, ’02; Ricky Gaudreau, ’10; Allison Wagner, ’11; and coach Phil Haynes, a member of the Class of 1970 — on Saturday night in an induction ceremony at the Red Jacket Mountain View Resort in North Conway. This year’s ceremony attracted 108 people.
The idea of the Sports Hall of Fame was conceived by the late George T. Davidson. After an exploratory meeting in the summer of 1990, a committee was formed and the first inductees were announced in the fall of 1991.
