Wisconsin AD Chris McIntosh tests positive for COVID-19, will miss bowl game

Wisconsin State Journal sports reporters Jim Polzin and Todd Milewski reflect after an event to name Chris McIntosh the next University of Wisconsin athletic director on Wednesday, June 2, 2021, at the Kohl Center.

University of Wisconsin athletic director Chris McIntosh has tested positive for COVID-19, which will keep him from attending the football team’s appearance in the Las Vegas Bowl.

McIntosh told State Journal columnist Jim Polzin on Thursday that he had tested positive. The Badgers men’s basketball team earlier in the day canceled its game against George Mason, scheduled for Thursday night at the Kohl Center, because of positive tests within its program.
