COLLEGE PARK, Md. - The Maryland Terrapins football team has temporarily suspended individual offseason workouts after some players and staff tested positive for COVID-19.
The school said in a statement Saturday that nine out of 185 players and staff tested positive for coronavirus.
The positive tests further complicate efforts to play a college football season this fall.
The Big Ten Conference, which includes the Terps, announced it would cancel all non-conference play.
Previously, the Ivy League canceled all fall sports this year.
