CONWAY — After a productive preseason, which has seen the Eagles light the lamp with regularity, and everyone remain healthy, the Kennett High hockey team is ready for the puck to drop on what should be an exciting season.
The Eagles are scheduled to open Division III play at home on Wednesday when they welcome Kearsarge-Plymouth to the Ham Arena. The opening face-off is set for 6:10 p.m.
