CONWAY — Junior Jack Robinson scored what proved to be the game-winning goal on a breakaway with 2:03 left in the second period to propel No. 9 Kennett High past No. 8 Sanborn-Epping 1-0 at the Dover Ice Arena on Wednesday night in the lone preliminary round game in the Division III tournament. This was the first 1-0 playoff victory in Kennett Hockey’s history.

Kennett (5-12-2) advances on into the Elite Eight where the boys from Conway will be back on the bus on Saturday for a 6 p.m. game against No. 1 seed and two-time defending state champs Berlin-Gorham (17-1) at the iconic Notre Dame Arena in Berlin. The game is open to all spectators and there are no mask restrictions.
