CONWAY — The Kennett High ski jumping team, the two-time defending champs, came up a little short in its bid for a three-peat last Thursday at the Division II State Championships in Plymouth. The Eagles were in the thick of things in the battle for second place, but the night belonged to the jumpers from Hanover.

Kennett did retain individual honors for the third year in succession when sophomore Zach Grzesik soared to the state and national title.
