Maryland football moved into The Hotel last Wednesday after a spike in cases caused the team to pause activities and cancel its game against Ohio State, with the hopes of controlling the spread to get back on the field as soon as possible.
But after transitioning back to normal living arrangements Sunday, another uptick in positive coronavirus cases forced the program to cancel this weekend’s game against Michigan State, pausing team activities for a second time.
Assistant Director of the University Health Center Dr. Yvette Rooks, Maryland athletic director Damon Evans and head football coach Mike Locksley provided an update following Thursday’s decision on where the program stands.
