Cranston Planners Oppose Grant Avenue Homes, Split on Rockwood Avenue
Owners seeking to build on undersized lots on Grant Avenue head to the Zoning Board of Review with negative Plan Commission recommendations, and a positive recommendation failed on one Rockwood Avenue request. Planning staff had recommended approval, arguing older neighborhoods like Thornton were built on 4,000-square-foot lots. Commissioners said the projects would exceed density on the city's future land use map. A positive recommendation on one Rockwood request failed two to three, and negative recommendations on both Grant Avenue requests passed by voice vote. The Zoning Board makes the final decision.

SWANSEA — Two players who have made a difference in the Joseph Case football team 's resurgence this fall have been juniors Troy Medas and Cooper Watson. The two Cardinals defensive players have created havoc for opposing teams all season long.

When the game gets tough, they get tougher." The Swansea natives will be tested against No. 3 Abington in Thursday's Division 6 Round of 8 football matchup, beginning at 6 p.m. Watch MA high school football on NFHS The Green Wave (7-2) can certainly run with the football as proven in their opening day win over Longmeadow, tallying nearly 300 yards on the ground. Quarterback Jack Reilly is also accurate throwing the football and crafty in the pocket. Medas, a 6-2, 185-pound linebacker, and Watson, a 6-4, 210-pound defensive end use their size, speed and toughness to create real problems for offenses. They also work in tandem to attack the running and passing game. Both made huge plays in last week's upset over defending Division 6
