CONWAY — Hard work, defense and a love of the game — that was the recipe for success for the MWV boys’ basketball team this summer. The Eagles, a collection of the current and future members of the Kennett High team, capped off an impressive summer on the hardwood recently by winning the Laconia Summer League and then the annual Battle at the Crossroads Tournament a couple of days later.

“We win because of our defense and effort,” said Coach Todd Giles. “The guys know this is their identity and that if they don’t play hard they can lose to anyone.”
