On Thursday, Nov. 5, in the MIAA Division 2 Round of 16 , the No. 2 Trojans (6-2, 2-0 Pioneer Athletic Conference) showed just why that’s the case.

Southcoast Health brings advanced heart scans to Fairhaven site

Southcoast Health has launched a cardiac PET/CT program in Fairhaven that gives patients access to advanced heart imaging without traveling outside the region. The program is available at 208 Mill Road, according to a community announcement. Cardiac PET/CT scans evaluate blood flow to the heart and can help diagnose significant heart problems. The technology also gives cardiac patients who cannot participate in a traditional treadmill heart stress test another option for diagnostic imaging. “Establishing this program further demonstrates how Southcoast Health continues to lead the way in providing expert clinical care in a community health setting. This technology is used at major tertiary centers, and now we have everything we need for diagnostic cardiac imaging and treatment all in one place,” said M. Wajid Baig, MD, medical director of Nuclear Cardiology at Southcoast Health. What cardiac PET/CT scans can detect Southcoast Health is using cardiac PET/CT imaging to evaluate coronary artery disease, chest pain or suspected angina, previous heart attacks, heart failure, microvascular disease and balanced ischemia, among other conditions.

Stephen Pina message to coach's dad led to removal from subcommittees | Exclusive

Brockton School Committee member Stephen Pina was removed from all subcommittees over a message he sent the father of a district employee. The vote was taken in executive session, a meeting held privately to discuss sensitive topics like personnel matters. A complaint regarding Pina was discussed during a Sept. 15 committee meeting, according to the agenda. Over the course of multiple phone interviews with The Enterprise, Pina and Vice Chair Claudio Gomes offered conflicting accounts of why the message could have led members to vote him off subcommittees — which are akin to working groups for areas like athletics, safety and teacher's union negotiations. Pina said Oct. 7 he was removed because, in the message, he expressed his belief that girls should not play on Brockton High's boys football team, and other members disagreed with this view. Gomes said Oct. 13 there were other reasons. "The fact that he's still trying to make his one-sided story is just insane," Gomes said. Gomes said he is not allowed to discuss what happened in executive session. But he said he could offer his opinion as someone interpreting publicly available information. From that perspective, he said in an interview Oct. 19 the message
