TCU-SMU Season Opener Postponed Due to Positive COVID-19 Test Results

The Sept. 11 season opener between TCU and SMU has been postponed after positive COVID-19 test results within the TCU program, the school announced in a statement.

The results came from athletes as well as members of the support staff, TCU athletic director Jeremiah Donati said. The two schools will monitor open dates throughout this season to potentially make up the game.

“In the course of following CDC guidelines and our aggressive testing and contact tracing strategy, we discovered that some student-athletes and support staff in our football program have tested positive for COVID-19," the statement read.
