SU to host Bryant Friday

News release

SYRACUSE, NY — Syracuse University Men’s Basketball will host Bryant University November 27, as scheduled.

The Syracuse University Department of Athletics has worked closely with the Onondaga County Health Department, the New York State Department of Health, and the Atlantic Coast Conference to enact protocols appropriate to resume basketball-related activities and safeguard the health and wellness of our student-athletes, our campus, and the Central New York Community. These protocols include, but have not been limited to, robust testing of all members of the basketball program multiple times each week.

Coach Jim Boeheim has now completed his required 10-day isolation period and has returned to work. Further, all members of the basketball program have undergone multiple tests since Coach Boeheim and another member of the program tested positive for COVID-19. Over that period, no additional players, coaches, or staff associated with the men’s basketball program have tested positive.

As basketball-related activities resume, we will remain in close contact with the Onondaga County Health Department and the New York State Department of Health, working together to ensure the health and safety of our student-athletes and our Central New York Community.
