Hours after the 6-3 ruling Monday by the U.S. Supreme Court that cleared the way for Joe Kennedy to resume coaching — and praying — at Bremerton High School, Kennedy said the decision hasn’t set in. “I’m still trying to process it,” Kennedy told the Kitsap Sun. “I haven’t stopped smiling once and it feels like my whole soul is vibrating.
