CONWAY — The largest crowd of the season to attend a sporting event at Kennett High this winter was given plenty to cheer about as the boy's basketball team took the lead for good on a Daven Bailey layup with 48 seconds to go to top Bishop Brady 53-50 in the opening round of the Division II playoffs in the Peter Ames Gymnasium on Tuesday night.

The No. 7 seeded Eagles were also able to get a measure of revenge over the No. 10 seeded Green Giants who had won the first matchup between the two teams 75-69 in Conway on Jan. 10.
