If you’re looking for good news in the way a group here nationally is handling COVID-19 you certainly don’t want to look at Major League Baseball as five more St. Louis Cardinals tested positive on Saturday morning.
One place in sports where test results continue to comeback negative, however?
The Notre Dame football program.
Saturday saw the football program release the results of their latest round of COVID-19 testing and to make a long story short – Notre Dame got a perfect score.
103 players tested and 103 negative tests.

Notre Dame has now administered 459 tests to the football team and athletic staff in recent with just two positive tests coming back and both of those players have since recovered.
The Notre Dame football program has clearly done a great job keeping COVID-19 from overtaking their locker room. Let’s hope they can keep that up and that more programs nationally start to have similar success stories.
