LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Concerns about Allie’s campaign To the Editor, On September 29th my letter to the editor was published in The Westfield News with concerns and issues with Dan Allie splitting the vote with his write-in campaign. After he was defeated in the Republican primary for state Rep. He continued to run to split the vote and in my observations, over sour grapes. To sum it up, his complaint about PAC money is what I con- sidered outside money. In early October I began to look into all the claims he was making. I then compared them to his record. Surprise! Dan has had outside money spent and donated on his behalf. virtually, the very same thing he is complaining about he has benefited from. You can put whatever name on outside money, it is still outside money. People in glass houses should not throw stones. He has taken this personally against me as a registered voter. There has been an attempt to silence me and that’s why I’m speaking out as a voter. Be damned if you think you’re going to violate my free speech. I called him out on his complaint about PAC money and his past actions in Westfields Elections. I was then reported to Facebook and my account was locked. I see this as an attempt to stop my free speech. Why do you ask? In Dan’s own words I did not have a picture, no friends, or any post. Facebook now wants my picture to confirm my identity. In his unsuccessful run for the seat in 2014. Dan had $5400.00 spent on his behalf by the Marlborough Republican City Committee. They were just one group from outside Westfield. I asked him what changed? I told him he was a hypocrite for what he was now claiming. Dan HAS had PAC STATE HOUSE NEWS SERVICE money spent on his behalf and I challenge him to say other- wise. He then sent out a scathing, deceptive mailer/letter that same year which he sent anonymously throughout the City of Westfield and was forced to admit to it on the WAQY Rock 102 Happening around the Commonwealth this week morning show.

That combined with scores from three other teammates helped the Saints upset the Westfield Technical Tigers 193 to 195 Friday. The match was decided with the final pairing. St. Mary’s No. 4 golfer, Cam Cusack, finished with a 50, while Saints’ sophomore Kaity Sweeney and junior Trevor Corriveau each shot a 52. Freshman Deven Werbiskis led Westfield Technical Academy with a 43. Evan Grant (50), Nick Moran (51) and Trent Adam (51) rounded out the scoring for the Tigers. Although it was just the second win of the season for St. Mary’s (2-5), they easily could eas- ily have been 5-2. The Saints lost five matches by a combined seven strokes, including a tie- breaker against Easthampton. “We were just blessed to have a season,” St. Mary’s golf coach Rick Labrie said. The Saints were supposed to close out their regular season against Central, but with Springfield high school sports temporarily shut down, that match was postponed indefinitely. “We have great students, great people, and a great group to coach. …Everybody followed the guidelines, were socially distanced, and no (coronavirus) episodes were attributed to golf.” St. Mary’s held its own in “the bubble” against the likes of Westfield Tech, Easthampton, and Sabis, which also recently stopped play due to COVID. St. Mary’s No. 2 golfer, senior co-captain Ryan Sweeney, who shot a 54 on Friday, was part of a core four which helped anchor the team all season. Sweeney, Umana and fellow seniors Gabe Sayre, Ty Leonard, and Keegan Foley are expected to graduate next spring. Although the senior golfers will soon depart, freshman Grant Labrie, eighth grader Calaeb Viewig, and seventh grader Carter Labrie offer a promising glimpse of things to come.
