Up for a ‘Challenge’?

Think you know everything about sports? Do you know anything? Choose your top PGA men’s golfer from each of the four Majors, the winning NASCAR driver from the Daytona 500, the next horse to vie for a Triple Crown, March Madness’ Final Four, and – all new for 2018 – every Red Sox-Yankees series throughout the summer.
This year offers a bit of a new twist as you will have to beat our very own sports editor, Chris Putz, and every other contestant for that one event. The reward is bigger and better though as each event’s winning entry will now be entered into the grand prize drawing. Pick your sport or try them all. Any ties not decided by each event’s tiebreaker will be decided by a random drawing. All winning entries will be eligible for our grand prize, a flat-screen TV. One entry per person.
The first event of our Ultimate Sports Challenge will feature the Daytona 500 on Sun., Feb. 18.
All entries must be postmarked by midnight Saturday. Entries not dropped off at our office on School Street by close of business day Saturday or postmarked after Saturday will be void. Only original entry forms published daily in The Westfield News will be accepted. Copies or facsimiles will be forfeit.
