CONWAY — After losing eight seniors to graduation, including four 100-point scores, the Kennett High ice hockey team will feature a new look this winter. While the Eagles may not be as offensively potent as in previous years, the hometown flock still plans to make some noise in Division III in this the 20th year of Kennett Hockey.
KHS is scheduled to open the season on the road on Wednesday, Dec. 12, at 6 p.m. at Laconia-Winnisquam. Kennett will wrap up that week with a Saturday, Dec. 15 home-opener against Alvirne-Milford at 6 p.m.
