Syracuse has passed the necessary requirements to enter phase two of its operational plan for summer workouts.
The Orange entered the second phase on Thursday and another 20 players joined the roughly 65 who arrived in Syracuse when phase one began June 9. The sizes of pods, in which a certain amount of players are allowed to interact with only one another, has increased from around 10 to 20 players.
Every player will be tested for COVID-19 upon arrival and quarantined until the results are returned.
