CONWAY — What better way for a team to bond than to shovel nearly a foot and a half of snow off its field. That’s exactly what the Kennett High boys’ lacrosse team did earlier this month to try to gain an edge on Mother Nature.
Coach Alec Frankel, now in his third year running the program, likes the camaraderie on his team and believes the Eagles have the talent and depth to make a little bit of noise in Division II this year.
