How it Happened
Rhode Island had its most explosive game of the season, beating St. Bonaventure 4-3 in the Atlantic 10 home opener Saturday night.
The game started with three goals in three minutes. Junior forward Íñigo Etxegarai scored his first of two goals on the night at the nine minute mark. A free kick by Keegan Walker was touched by Isnaba Namussé who had a pass to Etxegarai at the top of the box. The San Sebastian, Spain native blasted a shot past Bonnies keeper Nicolas Pucci for his first goal of the season.
Two minutes later the visitors broke through to knot the score at 1-1. Umechi Akuazaoku had a shot from the top of the box that found the back of the net. The score didn’t stay tied for long as an own goal gave the Rams a 2-1 lead going into the break.
The scoring continued in the second half, as Etxegarai scored again, this time off a quick touch from Brandon Bermingham at the 50th minute. The Bonnies kept fighting, striking in the 55th minute when Callum Shillington set up a pass to Mo Tall in the corner of the box. The shot by Tall soared past Rhody keeper Nate DiLoreto’s reach for his first goal of the season.
St. Bonaventure scored its third goal of the night to tie it at 3-3 when Akuazaoku headed in a rebound off an initial shot by Kenzo Brito that hit the top post.
The game looked to finish in a draw until Joan Sanchis scored a game-winner with less than four minutes remaining in the game. Nate Yurkovic had a cross from the corner and Sanchis tipped it in off his head for his third goal of the year and Rhody held on to win.

Hailey Bieber’s beauty brand Rhode launches summer tour in Newport
Hailey Bieber beauty brand Rhode launches summer tour in Newport
The well-known beauty brand founded by Hailey Rhode Bieber kicked off its international summer station tour with a pop-up in Newport from June 11-14.
NEWPORT – Some people lie splayed out on top of a pile of blankets at Bowen’s Wharf. Others sit in lawn chairs, fanning themselves in the Friday morning heat.
Employees in white shirts walk down the long line of people handing out water, sunscreen, fans and umbrellas.
A passerby walks past the large booth shaped as a lowercase r and wonders aloud, “What is going on here?”
The well-known beauty brand Rhode, founded by Hailey Rhode Bieber, kicked off its international summer station tour with a pop-up in Newport from June 11 to June 14.
Fans began lining up at 10:30 p.m. on Thursday night, June 11, to have a chance of walking away with items from the brand’s summer collection and an exclusive Rhode Island sweatshirt on Friday.
Brandon Lodge and Sam O’Malley, who were first in line on Thursday night, had been awake for almost 36 hours by the time the pop-up opened at 11 a.m. on Friday.
Abby Tenreiro tried to get Rhode merchandise during the day on Thursday, but she got in line too late, and the pop-up had sold out before she could get to the front of the line.
“We had to reformulate our plan,” Tenreiro said.
Dedicated to getting some of Rhode’s bronzers, Tenreiro got back in line at 1:30 a.m. on Friday morning for the next sale.
Anna Kelly and Mya Amaral stood at the end of the line, as they queued up after the pop-up had already opened for the day. Being from South Kingstown, they decided to check out the pop-up, due to its close proximity to where they live.
Kelly was originally surprised when she found out that Rhode’s summer station would be starting in Rhode Island.
“Last time I think they did one in New York City, so I thought it was going to be somewhere more like Boston,” said Amaral.
Tenreiro also said she was happy to not have to drive all the way to New York for such a viral event.
In addition to pointing out the irony of Rhode popping up in Rhode Island, Amaral said she’s noticed Newport becoming more popular recently.
“More young people are discovering it,” said Amaral.
From home-grown viral cafés such as The Nitro Bar, which got its start in Providence and Newport by Rhode Island natives, to viral brands such as Brandy Melville coming to Newport, residents are in easy reach of these places making the rounds on TikTok.
Rhode nodded to Newport’s viral fame by providing those waiting in line with goodies, such as coffee from The Nitro Bar and cinnamon buns from Co-Dough.

Grow Smart Rhode Island leader reflects on decades of change in Rhode Island development – The Boston Globe
Q: When Grow Smart Rhode Island launched in 1997, the state’s political conversation was very different. What has changed most about the way Rhode Island’s elected leaders, the business community, and residents think about growth and development since then?
Wolf: There’s been growing acceptance by our elected and civic leaders of the benefits of prioritizing development and redevelopment in our Main Streets, downtowns, and other areas with infrastructure and access to key services. There’s also increased recognition that Rhode Island can and should aim high when it comes to community and economic development – that we have significant assets to safeguard and capitalize upon, ranging from our vast collection of historic buildings in pedestrian-friendly neighborhoods, to our transit and public health-friendly compact development patterns, along with our deep water ports, exceptional urban/rural balance, and strategic location along the northeast corridor.
Q: You’ve spent decades trying to shape public policy in Rhode Island. What’s something that happened over the last quarter-century that surprised you — either because progress came faster than expected or because it took much longer than you thought it would?
Wolf: My biggest surprise has been how challenging it has been to persuade a critical mass of Rhode Island’s leaders that making significant investments in a more robust and integrated public transportation system is a sound move, with major short and long-term dividends. Our failure so far to fund RIPTA enough for it to be a viable transportation choice for a lot more Rhode Islanders is a substantial missed opportunity. Fortunately as a state I think we’re getting closer to recognizing this and doing the necessary course correction.
Q: Every long career leaves behind a few projects that never quite got across the finish line. What issue or opportunity do you most wish Rhode Island had tackled more aggressively during your time at Grow Smart?
Wolf: Several within the transportation sector, most notably implementing aggressively the thorough, sound, and bold State Transit Master Plan, an excellent blueprint both for doubling the daily frequency and duration of RIPTA service, and establishing an 18-mile light rail or dedicated bus line through the most populous part of Rhode Island.
Compared to most of our New England neighbors, our state has also under invested in our bike and pedestrian network. This has negative implications for our collective public health, tourism marketability, and talent recruitment/retention.
And finally, I believe we could’ve further expanded economic opportunity and smart economic growth by seeking to execute detailed and well-vetted plans to improve dramatically commuter rail service between Providence and Boston.
Q: You’ve spent nearly three decades helping Rhode Islanders think about housing, transportation, downtowns, and economic opportunity. As you look ahead, what challenge — or opportunity — do you believe will define Rhode Island’s next 20 years, and where do you hope to contribute?
Wolf: I think a key to strengthening Rhode Island’s economy and quality of life over the next 20 years will be further integrating our state strategically with the nearby economic powerhouses of metro Boston and metro New York, and doing so in a way that avoids exacerbating our housing crisis or losing our own beauty, magic, and soul. There are several ways I think I can contribute to this important needle threading exercise, including:
- Continuing to be a sharer of smart growth best practices from within and outside Rhode Island;
- Being an advocate and thought leader for better regional transportation and employment connectivity, as well as for housing and transit-friendly investments land use reforms that accelerate the revitalization of our downtowns and Main Streets and defy the predictions of population decline;
- Mentoring a new generation of creative economic and community development change agents.
