CONWAY — Nick Houghton-LaClair was held scoreless for the first 31 minutes and 48 seconds against Laconia in the Peter Ames Gymnasium on Wednesday. All of a sudden, like a microwave, he heated up and scored, including a bucket at the buzzer to give the Kennett High boys’ basketball team a thrilling 52-51 victory over the stunned Sachems.

The Eagles went 1-2 last week, falling 47-27 at home to Milford (2-2) on Dec. 13; beat Laconia (1-2) 52-51 at home on Wednesday; and fell 47-43 on the road at Lebanon (3-1) on Friday.
