CONWAY — It was a big week for the Kennett High softball team. The Eagles went 2-0 with a pair of solid wins. They also practiced outside for the first time this season. All good things, but the highlight was winning No. 450 for Coach Peter Ames, which came May 6 in Durham over Oyster River 9-7. The hometown flock closed out the week by beating Bow 12-0 at home on Wednesday.

Kennett has gone 451-219 with four state championships since 1986 with Ames as the head coach of the program.
