CONWAY — Coming off its first playoff taste in three years, the Kennett High football team would like to take another bite out of the post-season this fall. With a healthy number of veterans returning to the gridiron and off to a 2-0 start, optimism is high around Gary Millen Stadium.
The Eagles notched their second Division IV win in as many outings on Friday night in an impressive home debut, easily running past second-year program Sanborn 43-0.
