    Aliso Niguel’s Jaslene Massey enjoys the challenge and two wins at OC Championships
    MISSION VIEJO — Aliso Niguel’s Jaslene Massey was an easy choice to be honored as the Girls Athlete of the Meet for field events at the Orange County Championships on Saturday at Mission Viejo High School.
    The junior won her two events — shot put and discus — and again added her name to the all-time record lists for Orange County and the state.
    Massey improved on her state-leading mark in the shot put with a distance of 50 feet, 7 inches.

    Redefining Heart Care
    This approach is changing the game for patients who need cardiac procedures.
    Technology and medication such as lipid controlling drugs are making a huge difference in coronary disease. These advances allow patients to delay heart procedures and that’s a good thing.
    However for patients who need a cardiac procedure we always encourage them to ask their cardiologist or physician about minimally invasive options.

    PHILADELPHIA — Mookie Betts will take part in the Dodgers’ White House visit on Monday.
    “I’m going to go,” he said Friday. “It’s not a political stance that I’m taking. I know no matter what I say and what I do people will take it as political. But that’s definitely not what it is. This is about an accomplishment that the Dodgers were able to accomplish last year.”

    Ducks begin their march to the offseason in Vancouver
    After being charred by the Flames in Calgary on Thursday and reshuffling their deck in goal Friday, the Ducks were onto Vancouver for Saturday’s duel with the Canucks.
    Following their loss in Calgary, the Ducks were mathematically eliminated from a playoff picture from which they’d long faded. Meanwhile, the Canucks’ winless stretch of three games in which they’ve been outscored 15-7 has effectively relegated them to scheduling tee times this spring as well.

    Trump whacks tiny agency that works to make the nation’s health care safer
    By Arthur Allen, KFF Health News
    Sue Sheridan’s baby boy, Cal, suffered brain damage from undetected jaundice in 1995.
