CONWAY — The Kennett High boys’ basketball team got its season off on the right note with a 66-58 victory on the road over Hollis-Brookline on Friday night.
“We had a really nice game,” said Jack Loynd, Eagles’ head coach. “(Hollis-Brookline) is usually a top-eight team. They have some good shooters.”
