Report: ASU running back Kalen Ballage diagnosed with mononucleosis, could miss significant time

It hasn't been a very good weekend for the Sun Devils.

It looks like the Arizona State Sun Devils won't see Kalen Ballage for quite sometime.

The sophomore running back has been diagnosed with mononucleosis, according to a report from SunDevilSource.com.

ASU announced minutes before the Sun Devils' season-opening loss to Texas A&M Saturday that Ballage was ruled out due to an "illness." He made the trip to Houston, but returned to Tempe just hours before the game when the team learned his condition was contagious.
