Send Your Local briefs to [email protected] Subject: Local Briefs - WNG THE WESTFIELD NEWS WWW.THEWESTFIELDNEWS.COM SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 2018 - PAGE 9 SPORTS Butler did it! By Chris Putz Correspondent WESTFIELD – St. Mary’s senior guard Jake Butler pushed the ball on a fast break in the opening minutes of Friday’s contest against Smith Vocational, driving the full length of the court, going coast to coast and laying it in for the 1,000th point of his high school career. The buzzer sounded. The game was temporarily stopped, and Butler was given a standing ovation by teammates, family, friends, fans and a crowd that also included two of the school’s former 1,000-point scor- ers. “Welcome to the club,” former 1,000 point Saints’ scorer Judge Beattie said, moments after Butler hit his historic two. “It’s quite an accomplishment. (Jake) has The Saints’ Jake Butler (20) signs the ball he shot in that extra burst of speed and can really go to the hoop.” for 1,000 points on the season. (Photo by Randall S. Judge Beattie, who played center for St. Mary’s, Burlingame) scored his 1,000th point in 1966. “You need a lot of teammates getting you the ball in the right position to score,” said Judge’s son Matt, who reached the same feat as a Saints forward in 1994. Other Saints who reached that milestone include Kevin Miller (1974), and more recently, Steve Drenen, and Jon Ference. “He’s had a great five-year career,” St. Mary’s coach Joe Molta said. “He has played as hard as anybody Saint Mary’s Jake Butler (20) finesses in a layup to put himself at 1,000 could play.” points on the season Friday against Smith Voke at Westfield Middle You would not know it from the box scores – Butler School South. (Photo by Randall S. Burlingame) puts up nearly 25-30 points on any given night – but the St. Mary’s senior has been playing the season with a ruptured disc in his back, and a dislocated finger. It was a brief celebration for Butler, who was more concerned with getting back to playing, and more con- cerned with his team’s 48-38 loss to Smith Voke. In that game, the Vikings size and athleticism proved to be the difference as they wore down St. Mary’s on the boards. (Butler finished with 18 points.) “It was a layup,” Butler said, shrugging off the mile- stone moment. “All of our excitement came the other day when we put the nail in the coffin for the playoffs.” It is easy to see why he is regarded as one of Molta’s favorite ball players sidestepping the showman-like effort that often comes with being the team’s high scorer night in and night out, instead, focusing more on being workmanlike. “How many people can say they played for a state championship baseball team and scored 1,000 points?” coach Molta said. Saint Mary’s Luke Willenborg (12) feeds a pass to a Butler still might have another word or two, what teammate down court. (Photo by Randall S.

AP Sports Update ESPN radio station to take over broadcasts of UConn games STORRS, Conn. (AP) — An ESPN radio station will take over broadcasts of University of Connecticut sports games next fall in a multimillion dollar deal that will dump another station that has been the voice of the Huskies for 26 years. The 10-year deal was announced Friday, the same day Farmington-based WTIC-AM says it couldn’t reach an agreement to renew its contract. The new contract involves IMG, the multimedia rights holder for UConn athletics, and iHeartMedia and its 97.9 ESPN station in Hartford. The station will broadcast football, men’s and women’s basketball and men’s hockey games. The New Haven Register reports that Athletic Director David Benedict called WTIC a “great partner” and said the decision was difficult. Phil Zachary, a senior vice president at WTIC owned Entercom Communications, says he couldn’t justify paying what UConn and IMG sought.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Saturday, Feb. 17, 2018: This year you have a way of overwhelming oth- ers when you are pulling a problem apart in search of a solution. Be a better listener, and curb a ten- dency to be emotional. Trust your instincts about communication. If you are single, the second half of your birthday year will prove to be excellent for DUSTIN By Steve Kelley and Jeff Parker dating and meeting new people. You will enjoy this period. If you are attached, as a couple you will bring something new into your life after the sum- mer. As a result, the two of you are likely to head in a new direction. PISCES expresses his or her com- passion at odd times and places.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Your temper could be close to the sur- face, which might create a problem when you least SCARY GARY Mark Buford expect it. Try to discuss your strong feelings before they evolve and become even more explosive. Make time for a loved one you don’t see often. Tonight: Play it low-key. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Zero in on your priorities while you still can, before the pace quickens. You will want to be as clear as possible, especially when dealing with a friend. Fatigue marks your decisions. You know when you have done enough; honor that Crosswords guideline today. Tonight: Follow the gang. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) DOGS of C-KENNEL Mick and Mason Mastroianni HHH You will be more in touch with your feel- ings soon, which might feel out of place, consider- ing what you currently are dealing with. Honor what is going on by pitching in. You can and will make a big difference. Ask a friend for help, if necessary. Tonight: A must appearance. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH You could be tired of being patient, especially as everyone seems to test that character- istic in you. Avoid getting angry, and simply handle the issue at hand. Share an idea with someone who has the ability to visualize it. Listen to feedback. Tonight: Take a trip! LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) B.C. Mastroianni and Hart HHH You could be in a situation where you feel you must work with a partner on a key issue. You are best in one-on-one discussions. You have a resilient personality that seems to come through for you more often than not. Tonight: Squeeze in some exercise to relieve tension. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Be aware of what is happening, and see how your significant other or a loved one reacts. This person might not be on the same page as you. Communication will be instrumental in sharing your perspective and making sure the other party “gets” it. Tonight: Accept an offer. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ONE BIG HAPPY Rick Detorie HHHHH Defer to a key person in your life. Pressure builds, and you could find that you lose your temper a little too easily. You might be prone to acting out by going on a spending spree. Listen well to any feedback you get from a close loved one. Tonight: Think carefully about a project. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH You will be unusually expressive. In fact, you might even shock a loved one with what you share. You could be somewhat vague when discussing problems about your finances. You and a partner do not see a certain issue the same way. Tonight: Indulge without spending money. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ANDY CAPP Mahoney, Goldsmith and Garnett HHHH You might decide to help out a friend and pitch in right away. You are quite capable of lending a hand. You also might see a more efficient way of dealing with this particular matter. Do what you feel is best. Don’t be surprised by how a friend reacts. Tonight: All smiles. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH You could be on top of your game, but explaining what you are seeing might be more dif- ficult than you had imagined. Honor a fast change. Cryptoquip You likely will discover that you are more irritable than usual. Take a walk, and you’ll feel better. Tonight: At a favorite place with friends. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ZACK HILL John Deering and John Newcombe HHH Continue to use caution with your financ- es. You have a lot of get-up-and-go, but what you don’t want to do is misplace your energy. Think before you leap, especially in serious situations. As a result, you will be a lot happier. Tonight: Buy a favorite treat on the way home. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Take advantage of the moment, and let people observe you while you’re on top of your game. You are likely to come up with wonderful solutions. Use caution if you opt to bring up a topic that might make others uncomfortable. Choose your words carefully. Tonight: Say “yes.” PAGE 14 - SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 2018 www.thewestfieldnews.com THE WESTFIELD NEWS
