Diman freshman shines in rainy condition on Friday Night Lights

SOMERSET — Friday's non-playoff football game between Diman and Somerset Berkley was a test of fortitude on who could battle steady torrential downpour the best. The Bengals and freshman running back Dalen Kelly said no problem. "It was like a movie out there," said Diman head coach Luke Bahry after the Bengals pulled out an 8-0 win. "It felt more like primetime lights. It was a lot of fun. What a great game, instant classic." With the victory, Diman won its fifth straight win to improve to 6-3. Watch MA high school football on NFHS "This was a good clean game," Raiders first-year head coach Chris Santos said. "It was a nice rivalry game, kids see each other all the time. I'm glad we played, the kids will remember this one." With conditions worsening as the game progressed, Kelly received a boatload of the work on the ground in the second half. He finished with a game-high 114 yards on 26 carries and scored the game's lone touchdown in the third quarter. "It's all up from here for him," Bahry said. "I think he played a hell of a game.

Cranston Committee Backs Limits on Paved Surfaces for New Building

Homeowners and builders in Cranston could face limits on how much of a lot is covered by roofs, driveways and parking, ranging from 15% in the largest-lot zones to 70% in multifamily and some commercial-residential zones. Driveways and parking count unless built with a state-approved pervious surface. New projects would need stormwater mitigation, and where the city requires a drainage system, its maintenance manual must be recorded before a certificate of occupancy is issued. Accessory structures under 150 square feet and pools with patios of 150 square feet or less are exempt. The ordinance still goes before the full City Council.

Election Day on Block Island

The ballot for the mid-term election in Rhode Island and Block Island was relatively noncompetitive, with several uncontested races returning incumbents to their positions and others where the competition was so weak the challengers barely registered. Still, the turnout was strong, especially on Block Island where 60 percent of registered voters showed up at the one polling place at Town Hall, most of them taking advantage of early voting. In all, 696 voters cast ballots out of 1,157 registered in New Shoreham, a participation rate of 60 percent.
