Winning a championship in late February is hopefully a sign of things to come for the Hingham High boys hockey team.

On Thursday, the Harbormen won the Buddy Ferreira Classic with a 6-1 victory over Austin Prep. It's the first time Hingham has won the tournament since 2009, which was coach Tony Messina's first as head coach.

Bobby Falvey was named tournament MVP and goaltender Luke Merian was named to the all-tournament team. Duxbury's Brendan Bonner, Archbishop Williams' Shamus O'Toole and BC High's Ryan Flaherty earned all-tournament team honors.

Falvey scored two goals in the final while Connor Walsh, Shay Crean, Chase McKenna and Sean Garrity had solo tallies.

The crop generated nearly $3 billion last year in California and in the past decade the United States has surpassed Iran to become the world’s top exporter of the nut.

Exclusive-Taliban administration officials to attend UN climate conference in Azerbaijan
Afghan Taliban officials will attend a major United Nations climate conference that starts next week, the Afghan Foreign Ministry said on Sunday, the first time they have attended since the former insurgents took power in 2021. The COP29 climate summit in Azerbaijan's capital Baku will be among the highest-profile multilateral events attended by Taliban administration officials since they took control in Kabul after 20 years of fighting NATO-backed forces. The U.N. has not allowed the Taliban to take up Afghanistan's seat at the General Assembly, and Afghanistan's government is not formally recognised by U.N. member states, largely due to the Taliban's restrictions on women's education and freedom of movement.
