Northern Iowa coach Ben Jacobson confirmed Tuesday two of his players were among the eight positive COVID-19 tests UNI reported last Friday. Jacobson added that both guys "feel great" and are expected back when summer activities begin July 20.
"That's probably going back over the last two, two-and-a-half weeks now," (that they tested positive)," Jacobson said on Tuesday's Missouri Valley Conference coaches Zoom call. "Both guys are doing great and following all the protocols. They're back in line now to get back and join the group because it's been long enough since they had symptoms and long enough since they tested positive.
