The Latest on an Ohio student convicted of rape as a teen seeking reinstatement to a college football team (all times local):5:50 p.m.A federal appeals court is allowing an Ohio man convicted of rape as a teen to play in a college football game Saturday. Youngstown State appealed the decision Friday morning, and the appeals court dismissed it Friday afternoon. Richmond sued the university after it allowed him to join the football team and then told him he couldn't play this season. U.S. District Judge Benita Pearson granted Steubenville resident Ma'lik Richmond a temporary restraining order against Youngstown State University late Thursday. That order would allow Richmond to play football for the next 14 days, including a game Saturday.
