Joseph Case football duo ready for Abington playoff showdown

SWANSEA — Two players who have made a difference in the Joseph Case football team 's resurgence this fall have been juniors Troy Medas and Cooper Watson. The two Cardinals defensive players have created havoc for opposing teams all season long. "What they both bring together, which I think bleeds into the rest of the defense, is they are just tough kids," first-year head coach Mike Cloutier said. "There's no backing down in them. When the game gets tough, they get tougher." The Swansea natives will be tested against No. 3 Abington in Thursday's Division 6 Round of 8 football matchup, beginning at 6 p.m. Watch MA high school football on NFHS The Green Wave (7-2) can certainly run with the football as proven in their opening day win over Longmeadow, tallying nearly 300 yards on the ground. Quarterback Jack Reilly is also accurate throwing the football and crafty in the pocket. Medas, a 6-2, 185-pound linebacker, and Watson, a 6-4, 210-pound defensive end use their size, speed and toughness to create real problems for offenses. They also work in tandem to attack the running and passing game. Both made huge plays in last week's upset over defending Division 6

'Despicable.' Taunton City Council OKs budget after heated lawyer fight

After a heated debate, Taunton city councilors voted 7-1 to approve the supplemental budget they rejected two weeks ago, without any changes and without a budget line item specifically for an attorney for the City Council. Previously, the Council voted 5-4 to reject the supplemental budget because it did not contain funding for an attorney specifically for the City Council . The supplemental budget contains funding for firefighters, funds the pension of a city employee serving in the military, and also adds $481,000 to the city's reserve account where it can be used in the event of an economic downturn or other financial challenge. At the most recent Tuesday, Nov. 10, council meeting, Chief Financial Officer Patrick Dello Russo said that hypothetically, money was available for the council to hire their own attorney. But he said that he would not make the money available until the Council came to an agreement with City Solicitor Matt Costa about the role of such an attorney. Costa, for his part, said that he had "legal concerns" but that he was "open to having the discussion."
