CONWAY — Fans of the Kennett High boys’ basketball team probably wish halftime never came on Saturday night. The No. 6 seeded Eagles were giving No. 3 Pembroke fits in this Elite Eight Division II quarterfinal, dominating at both ends of the court in Concord. The boys from Conway led 32-20 at the break.

Unfortunately, it was a tale of two halves. The host Spartans outscored the Eagles 32-11 in the second half to pull out the 54-43 win and punch their ticket to the Final Four.
