For the first time in seven years, the Newport Inv For the first time in seven years, the Newport Invitational Lifeguard Tournament roared back to life, pitting some of the Northeast’s best ocean rescue teams against each other in a day of grit, skill, and serious wave wrangling. And when the spray settled, Easton’s Beach Surf Patrol stood tall, claiming the top spot in the Boat Division and proving why they’re one of Rhode Island’s most respected crews. Boat Division results:
1️⃣ Easton’s Beach @eastonsbeach_surfpatrol
2️⃣ Narragansett Beach @narragansettsurfrescue
3️⃣ Sachuest Beach @secondbeachsurfrescue
4️⃣ Westerly Town Beach @westerlysurfrescue
5️⃣ Long Beach Township (NJ) @lbtbeachpatrol Non-Boat Division results:
1️⃣ Jones Beach (NY) @jonesbeachsurfracing
2️⃣ Connecticut State Park Lifeguards @ctstateparklifeguards
3️⃣ Nauset Beach (MA) @nausetbeachlifeguards Held under classic Newport summer skies, the tournament showcased everything that makes lifeguard culture legendary: teamwork, power, and absolute command of the ocean. For Easton’s Beach, the victory wasn’t just about medals—it was about defending home turf and keeping the rich tradition of surf rescue alive. With the Invitational officially back on the calendar, the only question is: who’s ready to challenge the kings and queens of Easton’s Beach in 2026? #eastonsbeach #newportri #newportbuzz
Brown University announced Wednesday it has reache Brown University announced Wednesday it has reached an agreement with the Trump administration to unfreeze federal research funding, while committing to major policy changes on admissions, sex definitions, and protections for Jewish students. The deal ends three federal reviews into whether Brown violated anti-discrimination laws. In exchange, the Ivy League school will direct $50 million over 10 years to Rhode Island workforce programs and revise campus policies. As part of the agreement, Brown will remove race as a factor in admissions, eliminate any “unlawful” diversity quotas or targets, and adopt federal definitions of “male” and “female” for NCAA athletics and campus housing. The school also agreed to prohibit gender-transition surgeries and puberty blockers for minors in university-affiliated facilities. The move follows allegations that Brown failed to adequately address harassment of Jewish students. The university pledged new protections, continued funding for Hillel programs, and an independent review of campus climate and social media harassment targeting Jewish students. Education Secretary Linda McMahon called the deal a “step toward restoring merit-based admissions and ensuring all students can learn free from discrimination.” Brown President Christina Paxson emphasized the agreement did not admit fault, saying the university would “continue to foster free inquiry, discovery, and academic freedom.” The resolution will also restore more than $50 million in unpaid federal medical research grants and allow Brown to compete for future funding — marking a major turning point in a high-profile clash over sex, race, and religious protections on campus. #brownuniversity #donaldjtrump #newportbuzz
