CONWAY — The Kennett High girls’ lacrosse ended last year on a roll by winning three of its final four games and carried that momentum into 2022. The Eagles opened this spring winning three of its first four matches and sits in the top five of Division II.
Not bad for a varsity program that has one full season of play under its belt.
