Coach concerned COVID-19 could hurt Clemson’s plan for a return to campus

Though his current players do not report to campus until the week fall classes begin on Aug. 19, Clemson baseball coach Monte Lee is concerned if his players will be able to make it on campus.

This past Friday, Clemson Athletics reported 25 confirmed cases where student-athletes and staff members tested positive for COVID-19. Twenty-one of those athletes came from the football team. Since student athletes reported to Clemson’s campus to begin voluntary workouts on June 8, 28 people have tested positive for the virus.

But the spike is just not on Clemson’s athletic campus.
