Three players on Tufts University’s men’s lacrosse team remain hospitalized after a workout with an alum who is a graduate of a Navy SEAL training program, the university said Monday.
Patrick Collins, executive director of media relations at Tufts University, said in a statement to NPR on Monday that about 50 players participated in a “voluntary, supervised 45-minute team workout” on campus on Sept. 16. All were evaluated by medical professionals, with nine requiring hospitalization for rhabdomyolysis, he said.
The three players still hospitalized are responding to treatment and Collins said there is hope that they will be discharged soon.
"The university continues to closely monitor the condition of the team, and some individual team members have been medically cleared to resume training," Collins said. "However, all team practices continue to be postponed until university medical personnel authorize their resumption."
