Sophomore Mike Shore was able to make the necessary adjustments, though, as he fired a 2-over-par 72 to tie for the top individual score after the first round. Freshman Greg Shuman was close behind, shooting a 75 to help card a team score of 307 and put the Crimson in second place with two rounds left to play. Captain Tom Hegge shot...

Washington D.C. is the unhealthiest place to live, with a combined life expectancy of 72 years, on par with the Gaza Strip. Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, and South Carolina, all have combined life expectancies under 75 years—lower than Mexico and Saudi Arabia. Middlesex County, which includes Cambridge, fares well; men here can expect to live 76.8 and women 81.4 years. The study seeks to raise awareness...
