Good morning, Norfolk.

After Hurricane Helene, local volunteers got certified in disaster response (as part of the Here to Help series) to assist in future emergencies.

A Navy investigation found that preventable accidents caused by fatigue, poor training, and miscommunication endangered over 100 sailors during USS Truman’s deployment in the Red Sea, including a collision that created a 15-ft gash; commander (Capt. Michael D.

Snowden) was fired and upgrades to AEGIS are underway to improve safety.

The MEAC announced its Men’s Basketball Weekly Honors, naming Howard’s Bryce Harris as Player of the Week, North Carolina Central’s Dionte Johnson as Defensive Player of the Week, & Howard’s Danas Kazakevicius as Rookie of the Week.

Harris scored 36 points vs. St. Mary’s while others posted high numbers.
