\u201cThe safety and welfare of all of our student-athletes is paramount in all that we do,\u201d the statement reads. \u201cWhile we cannot comment on the health of our individual students, we have implemented modifications as we transition back into full training to prevent further occurrences.\u201d<\/p>\n
