Michigan vs. Ohio State Canceled Due to Wolverines' COVID-19 Outbreak

Michigan officially announced its game against Ohio State scheduled for Saturday will be canceled as a result of a COVID-19 outbreak.

Athletic director Warde Manuel explained the news in a statement:

"The number of positive tests has continued to trend in an upward direction over the last seven days. We have not been cleared to participate in practice at this time. Unfortunately, we will not be able to field a team due to COVID-19 positives and the associated quarantining required of close-contact individuals. This decision is disappointing for our team and coaches but their health and safety is paramount, and it will always come first in our decision-making.
