Ottawa, meet your first-ever Fury FC coach

dos santos.jpgOttawa's new soccer team will hit the field at Lansdowne Park in 2014. They have a name, Ottawa Fury FC, and they'll be part of the North American Soccer League. And as of today, the team has its first head coach.

 

His name is Marc Dos Santos -- he's from Montreal, and a former coach of the Montreal Impact. But more recently, he's been coaching under-15 and under-20 teams in Brazil. That includes a stint at SE Palmeiras, one of the country's most successful soccer clubs - where he led the under-15 team to victory in the 2012 Brazilian Youth Championship. We reached Dos Santos in Sao Paulo.

So far, Colin Greening is turning out to be the hero of the Senators series against the Pittsburgh Penguins series, but in his hometown of St. John's, Newfoundland, his friends from the hockey arena know him as "Baby G." In an effort to get to know #14 a little better, Giacomo Panico tracked down Greening's coach from his minor hockey days.

Suicide contagion study

There's no questioning the impact of suicide on friends and family, and when the person involved is a youth, the loss is all the more devastating. Maybe less obvious, though, is the wider fallout -- what the loss of a classmate or a friend-of-a-friend can mean for a teen's own mental state.

 

According to a new study in the Canadian Medical Association Journal, young people who lose a schoolmate to suicide are up to five times more likely to consider or attempt it themselves. Dr. Ian Colman is the senior author of the report, and he joined us with the details.
