USC closes Spring Camp practices to public because of coronavirus

USC football’s plans to keep Spring Camp practices open to the public have been derailed.

As part of a response to the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus, the Trojans announced on Tuesday night wide-ranging policies limiting public access to all athletic events held on campus until March 29 at the earliest. That includes games as well as previously open practices.

The university had already transitioned to online classes and canceled all university events on campus.

USC’s football team was scheduled to return to the practice field on Tuesday but that first practice of Spring Camp was delayed to Wednesday because of weather concerns with a thunderstorm hitting Los Angeles.
