CONWAY — Seven members of the Kennett High alpine team competed in the prestigious Meet of Champions at Cannon Mountain in Franconia last Thursday, and while the overall results were not what the Eagles were hoping for, they proved they can ski with the best in the Granite State.
KHS sophomore Myra Johnston finished fourth overall in the slalom to earn a spot on the Eastern High School Team that will compete at Attitash from March 8-10.
