WESTFIELD – The Westfield High School boys’ tennis team wrapped up the regular season one week ago, shutting out St. Mary 5-0. The Bombers swept singles play with Jacob Barbieri (6-0, 6-1), Tristin Viale (6-1, 6-0), and Rob Bernadara (6-1, 6-2) winning at the 1-2-3 spots, respectively.
Alec Best and Casey McKenzie won in top doubles competition, 6-1, 6-0. Westfield received a forfeit victory at second doubles.
“It was a great (regular) season,” Westfield coach John Morizio said. “This team worked at doing the right thing. (Our players) made tremendous commitments, and showed caring and concern for each other … We had a cohesive group that gave us a lot of success this season.”
At 13-0, Westfield will now seek to extend that success into the postseason. The third-seeded Bombers will take on No. 6 Northampton in the WMass D1 quarterfinals Saturday, May 30 at home at 3:30 p.m.
In another quest for perfection, the Westfield softball team, seeded No. 1 in the WMass D1 quarters, will attempt to make it 21 straight victories when it takes on No. 8 Pittsfield at 1 p.m.
