In the age of the internet, where do we turn for coverage of local and high school sports? I am writing to compliment the Gazette on the coverage of high school and youth sports.
Your staff does an incredible job of highlighting the success of western Mass. youth. In particular, reporter Kyle Grabowski should be recognized for his comitment to the area’s student-athletes.
Kyle has a good understanding of the western Mass. sports landscape. His coverage of games is fair and comprehensive. He recognizes the importance of promoting high school sports and athletes.
Fans have come to rely on Kyle’s Twitter feed to follow games and scores in real time. Players are monitoring his feed for scores like an out-of-town scoreboard at a major league park. Parents and grandparents follow his coverage when they cannot be at games.
Thank you for the manner in which the Gazette covers local sports. We can all get info on the Sox, Bruins, Patriots and Celtics from the major sports media outlets. We need the work of reporters like Kyle Grabowski to bring us the stories of our local teams. The fans and the players truly appreciate your coverage.
