Paralyzed former football player from Avenel shares message of hope and perserverance.
Football player Eric LeGrand may have been knocked down but he is by no means out. The defensive tackle, who suffered paralyzing injuries after colliding with an opponent in October of 2010 while playing for Rutgers, believes he is destined for greater things than simply playing football. Though confined to a wheelchair, LeGrand's inspirational spirit soared over the crowd of Westfield High School students Friday morning as he shared his message of hope, faith and determination in the face of adversity. The motivational speaker took students back to the fall day that has forever changed his life.

Students help local families in need.
Furniture Assist, a local organization that donates gently-used furniture to families in the area who cannot afford it, recently branched out to Westfield High School through Andrew Stern, a junior, and Will Stern, a freshman. According to Andrew, the brothers got involved in the organization over a year ago when their neighbor, Chris Wronski, a board member of Furniture Assist, approached them and explained that they had a lot of donations but not a sufficient number of volunteers. Since then they have been volunteering about once a month. Said Andrew: “Talking to social workers and nuns about the families they are trying to help really showed me how many people, especially kids, are living in poverty. I think it’s important to get …
