As a Providence College student with lots of hometown Pacific North West pride, the Seattle Seahawks’ 29–13 defeat of the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LX at Levi’s Stadium was personal. The Seahawks delivered a composed and physical performance on the biggest stage in football, proving that I wasn’t the only one who was […]
The athlete of the week is Jason Edwards ’G26, who made his return against DePaul University on Saturday, Feb. 8. The Friars desperately needed a true point guard to run the offense and struggled without Edwards’ presence.

It’s no doubt that the biggest storyline of the 2026 Milano Cortina Winter Olympics is Lindsey Vonn’s return. Vonn has been an iconic name in skiing for years. Born in St. Paul, MN, Vonn began skiing when she was three, when her father, a former competitive skier, began coaching her. Vonn began competing at seven […]

Men’s Basketball The men’s basketball team hosted two Big East opponents this week: Butler University and DePaul University. On Wednesday night, Feb. 4, the Friars hosted Butler in a close game. Butler’s Finley Bizjack sent the game to overtime with two missed free throws. Nilavan Daniels ’28 hit a big three that helped push the game […]
On the average weekday, over 41,000 Rhode Islanders board a Rhode Island Public Transit Authority bus, and many of those trips begin, end, or require a stop at the infamous Kennedy Plaza in downtown Providence. What has historically served as a hub for civic engagement and multi-modal transportation is now viewed by many as one […]
Happy February, Friars, and congratulations to the Patriots for losing the Super Bowl! I really enjoy watching the Super Bowl every year because it offers a high-intensity game (usually), an intricate musical performance, and interesting commercials.
