Couple players had serious injuries and other had minor injuires. All were taken to a hospital in Pittsfield.

That’s a very bad area. I go to Exit 3 on the pike every couple of weeks and between exit 1 and 3 there is ALWAYS snow drifts during the winter. It’s kind of weird because they don’t even forcast it. I’ve left westfield with a clear sky, saw snow in that area, and then clear skies again after exit 1. Good to hear that no one died with this incident though.
