Brookline High School has a transgender athlete on its girls' track team, but the athlete did not compete at the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association state championship meet on Thursday for unknown reasons.
Senior Chloe Barnes, a male who helped Brookline win an MIAA Division 1 state championship last year with a fourth-place finish in the 55-meter hurdles, did not participate in the Division 1 meet Thursday, February 15.
Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey has nominated a former longtime romantic partner to the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court.
The nominee, Gabrielle Wolohojian, 63, who owned the four-bedroom condominium in Charlestown where she and Healey lived as a same-sex couple for more than a decade, has served on the Massachusetts Appeals Court since 2008. It's the state's second highest court.
