CONWAY — If ever there was a year to have late start getting out on the courts, this might be it for the Kennett High girls’ tennis team. Fortunately, Coach Duncan Yarworth has a veteran squad returning to the Nest this spring.
Yarworth, in his second year at the helm of the Eagles, not only has all 20 girls back from last year, the hometown flock has grown to 30 out for the sport this spring.
