<p>The West Springfield Spartans are coming off a 9-3 campaign that saw them advance to the Region Finals before they bowed out to South County. A long history of success and with the return of several key starters from last year's playoff team, the Patriot District has a lot of competition on it's hand. </p>

<p>Head Coach Anthony Parker shared his thoughts on the Spartans upcoming season "We are returning 6 starters on offense and 8 on defense, we have some really good young players that we expect to step up and help up compete this year".</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The Patriot District was well represented in the Class 6 playoffs in 2022, expect more of the same in 2023. If everything goes according to their plan, West Springfield is sure going to have something to say about it come November. </p>
