CONWAY — The Kennett High girls’ basketball team continued it's winning ways with a pair of lopsided victories over Belmont last week to run the current win streak to four in a row.
The Eagles beat Belmont 59-24 on the Red Raiders’ home court on Thursday, and three nights earlier, in the Peter Ames Gymnasium on Senior Night, beat them 63-19.
