Streaker interrupts high school football playoff game

Posted

With 8:46 left in Tuesday night’s semifinal playoff game between Barrington High School and Cranston East, officials and the teams were focused on the Eagles’ 24-yard line, where officials placed the ball after calling a penalty against Cranston East.
