Support and Spirit Push Cougars to Victories The Kennedy varsity, after getting off to a fast start, slowed up and lost a good number of their remaining games. Kennedy's early victories included impressive wins in the St. John's tournament, in which they placed first. The team, under the direction of Coach John Beattie, had unexpected trouble winning in district play. BV
