Hungry for change: school lunch makeover

After waking up late from a long night of studying, rushing out the door to make it to class on time, and forgetting to grab your lunch from the refrigerator, your stomach is already growling by lunchtime. After finally getting lunch, four chicken nuggets or one slice of pizza, it’s gone in three seconds with your stomach not adequately filled. Instead of giving students the energy they need to get through the rest of the school day, the small lunch portions can leave them feeling hungry and unprepared for what comes next.

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

Massachusetts Contractor Sued Nearly 70 Times, Kept Building After License Suspended

A Middlesex County renovation company has been named in nearly 70, rather than exactly 70, lawsuits across Massachusetts, with most of those cases filed over the past six years and legal judgments against it now topping $700,000. Homeowners describe gutted properties, unpaid subcontractors, and a project in Melrose that left a couple without electricity or running water just as they needed to move out.

Hudson's unbeaten season ends with heartbreaking playoff loss in OT

HUDSON — As Zac Attaway and Andrew Oliveira left the Morgan Bowl for the last time this fall on Thursday night, the Hudson High football coach and his injured senior captain embraced. While rain fell down on the pair of Hawks, so did tears from their cheeks following their team’s 22-21 overtime loss to Old Rochester in a Division 6 state quarterfinal. “He’s been a father figure to me in my life,” said Oliveira, who missed the entire 2026 season recovering from a torn ACL and meniscus in his left knee. “But that hug on the field with Coach Attaway is just my last time ever being in the Bowl, and that guy has done tremendous things for me.” “I’m just so proud of him,” Attaway said. Postgame tears told the story for the Hawks Thursday. A wild finish While No. 2 Hudson aspired to make its fourth straight Division 6 Final Four appearance , seventh-seeded Old Rochester had other plans. After a scoreless first half, where both teams traded seven punts and three turnovers/turnover on downs, the action started to heat up in the second half during a rematch of last year’s Div. 6 state quarterfinal.

Many driving through Bedford past the Edith Nourse Rogers Veterans Memorial Hospital may not know about the woman memorialized by its name, Edith Nourse Rogers. She was a pioneer in many ways, but especially in her work supporting veterans. After her husband John Jacob Rogers was elected to Congress in 1912, she traveled with him to England and France, where she witnessed the injuries of soldiers returning from World War I. She was moved to volunteer for the American Red Cross.
