Not. This. Time. The Chicopee Comprehensive Colts beat two of the state’s premier boys volleyball teams during the regular season, knocking off Westfield and Agawam in back-to-back contests. The Bombers were more than ready for the rematch.
No. 2 Westfield received a gargantuan effort from senior Gio Gonzalez (13 kills, two aces, five digs) as the Bombers swept third-seeded Chicopee Comp in a state Division 2 boys volleyball semifinal on Tuesday evening at West Springfield High School, 25-23, 25-20, 25-18.
With the victory, Westfield advances to play top-seeded Wayland (22-2) in the D2 boys volleyball championship on Thursday evening at Worcester North High School at 6 p.m. It is Westfield’s eighth trip to the finals since 2015. The Bombers have won five state championships in seven tries.

Continuing a longstanding tradition of celebrating excellence, Westfield High School named Colin White as this year’s Bronze Tablet honoree.
The Bronze Tablet is awarded annually to a member of the graduating class who has done the most for the welfare, good name, and progress of the school. That student’s name is permanently engraved on a bronze tablet and added to the plaque, which stands prominently in the main entrance to the school near the auditorium.

One year ago, a senior pitcher by the name of Shea Hurley led the Westfield High School softball team to a Western Massachusetts championship. Without their field general, the Bombers stumbled to a 2-7 start this season.
Westfield finished strong down the stretch, winning three of its final four games, and then made some noise in the PVIAC tournament with a thrilling quarterfinal win over Longmeadow and a narrow defeat to eventual runner-up Agawam.
Although it was the end to Westfield’s quest to defend its Western Mass crown, it has not deterred them from attempting to make yet another run.
Westfield pitcher Hailey Zanolli tossed a two-hitter, allowing just one run and no walks while striking out 10 batters, outdueling Gabrianna Arigghi to help the No. 31 Bombers advance past No. 34 Bristol Plymouth, 3-1, in a Division 2 state tournament preliminary round game on Friday.
Westfield advances to play second-seeded Marshfield (18-2) in the Round of 32 on the road Sunday at 1 p.m.

Every day in school matters—attendance builds success.
This past weekend, the Westfield High School Choir performed in Williamsburg, Virginia in a national music competition. They represented Westfield with pride and honor while taking home 1st place, excellent in both the Men's and Show Choir, and 1st place, superior in both the Women's and Concert Choir. Shannon King earned the overall best soloist of the weekend while the full choir won the best overall choir. We are so proud of our music students!
Today we celebrate our incredible school nurses—thank you for the care, compassion, and expertise you bring to our schools every single day. Your work keeps our students safe, healthy, and ready to learn. Happy School Nurses Day!
Congratulations to all students who earned Honor Roll for quarter 3. We are proud of your hard work, dedication, and achievement!

Hey students — showing up is your superpower. Each day you’re in class you level up your skills, meet friends, and get closer to your dreams. Be here. Be curious. Be unstoppable. #attendancematters
Regular school attendance is one of the strongest predictors of student success. When students come to school each day they learn new skills, stay connected with teachers and classmates, and access the supports they need to thrive. Chronic absenteeism can make it hard to catch up — but every day missed is also an opportunity to improve. Let’s work together — families, teachers, and neighbors — to make sure every student can be present, safe, and ready to learn. #EveryDayCounts #AchievingExcellenceTogether
