There have been no new positive COVID-19 cases among players and staff within SU’s football program, head coach Dino Babers said in his weekly press conference on Monday.
Babers said 160 athletes and personnel were tested “just the other day” and all came back negative. Syracuse tests three times per week, adhering to the Atlantic Coast Conference’s guidelines, so it’ll undergo two more rounds before Friday night’s game against Louisville.
There have been no known positive cases since the football team returned to campus in July for workouts, but Syracuse Athletics doesn’t publicly release COVID-19 test results.
