B-R football’s Cam Knudsen comes in clutch again in quarterfinal win

BRIDGEWATER — As No. 2 Bridgewater-Raynham football (7-2, 2-0 Pioneer Athletic Conference) entered the second half of its MIAA Division 2 quarterfinal against No. 7 Westford Academy (8-2, 3-0 Dual County Thorpe), the Trojans found themselves in some relatively unfamiliar territory : being held scoreless. Trailing by a touchdown to the Ghosts after a defensive stalemate of a first half, B-R received the ball to start the third quarter and battled its way down field to the goal line. A determined WA defense stood as strong as advertised, holding the line and forcing the Trojans into a fourth-and-goal with just inches remaining. That’s when B-R coach Eian Bain made the call for a direct snap to one of his most trusted options on all sides of the ball in senior wide receiver/safety Cam Knudsen. As he has all fall, Knudsen found a way, sweeping to the right and in for the touchdown with 6:56 left in the third quarter. “I just went into the huddle and said ‘I love each and every one of you,’ Knudsen said. “‘Let’s do this for each other.’” From there, it was a completely different ballgame. While a rare extra point miss by senior kicker

Two years removed from one-win season, Rockland football is back in Final 4

TYNGSBORO -- They were the lower seed, but the Rockland High football team became the bullies in a state quarterfinal on Friday, Nov. 13. After giving up an opening drive touchdown, No. 7 Rockland scored 30 consecutive points to upset No. 2 Tyngsboro on the road 36-12 in the MIAA Division 7 state tournament quarterfinals at Tyngsboro High School. Rockland (5-5) advances to its first Final Four since it made consecutive state semifinals in 2021 and 2022. The Bulldogs will face No. 3 St. Bernard’s (10-0) in the semifinals next week. Tyngsboro (8-1) called the game with under 2:30 remaining on Rockland’s final possession after an unsuccessful onside kick attempt. “It’s been a long time coming,” said Rockland head coach Nick Liquori. “That 1-10 season looks so far behind us.” Just three seasons ago, Rockland struggled to a 1-10 finish after making the state quarterfinal or better in each of the three previous seasons. Now, Rockland has climbed back to its championship standard. More: Defending champ East Bridgewater volleyball returns to Final Four It’s Rockland’s second consecutive playoff win against Tyngsboro.

Nobscot housing plan shrinks again amid rezoning

A controversial housing proposal in Framingham's Nobscot neighborhood is continuing to shrink as city officials move closer to putting a rezoning request before the full City Council. The proposal from Waltham-based J & Co. calls for a residential development on around 30 acres near Edmands and Edgell roads on the north side of Framingham. The developer is seeking a zoning change that would allow higher density residential development on the property. An earlier version presented in February called for 416 units, including townhomes and multifamily buildings, but councilors said during a Nov. 9 Planning and Zoning Subcommittee meeting that the project's size has since been reduced to between 325 and 350 units with the final number still being discussed. When the property was considered for inclusion in the city's MBTA Communities zoning district in 2024, proposals contemplated the potential for more than 1,000 units. The parcel was ultimately excluded from the city's final MBTA zoning map. Since then, the scale of the development has continued to shrink amid opposition from residents. Councilors would like proposal to go before full council During the meeting, District 6 Councilor Phil Ottaviani said that he would like to see this proposal go before the

Nobscot Housing Plan Keeps Shrinking as Framingham Council Weighs Rezoning

A long-debated housing proposal for a roughly 30-acre swath of Framingham's Nobscot neighborhood has shrunk again, with the latest version calling for between 325 and 350 units — down from an earlier 416-unit plan that itself followed concepts once contemplated at more than 1,000 potential units back in 2024. The Planning and Zoning Subcommittee discussed the scaled-back proposal on November 9, but has not finalized a unit count, leaving the project in limbo even as one councilor pushes to speed things along.
