The Villanova Wildcats are on a COVID-related pause due to positive coronavirus test results impacting Tier 1 staff members.
Head coach Jay Wright and one other staff member tested positive, the team announced on Sunday afternoon.
“Our players have been very diligent and disciplined with all of the COVID protocols,” Wright said in a statement. “Unfortunately, we have had two staff members test positive. I am one of them. My symptoms are mild, and we remain connected as a team and staff by phone and Zoom. I am grateful to our team physician, Dr. Mike Duncan, who has worked tirelessly to help guide us safely through this.
