• From all angles, Teddy Glynn, Norwell boys' lacrosse stay in attack mode, surge past Scituate (bostonglobe.com) — Scituate High’s boys’ lacrosse team fell 10–6 on the road to defending Division 4 state champion Norwell, despite holding the Clippers scoreless for more than 21 minutes. Norwell’s Teddy Glynn exploded for five varied goals as Norwell’s offense finally broke through, offering a good early-season test and measuring stick for Scituate against another reigning state champion.
   

• Senate Passes $3.6B Bill Requiring Sellers Disclose Flood Risks (bankerandtradesman.com) — State lawmakers just advanced a major $3.6 billion climate and resilience bill that specifically flags low-lying downtowns like Scituate as at risk from flooding and storms. The package would boost funding for coastal defenses, voluntary buyouts, and local resilience projects, and require home sellers statewide to disclose flood history—changes that could directly affect Scituate property owners and future buyers.
