IU’s football workouts are ‘on pause’ after six participants tested positive this week for COVID-19.
In a statement Friday, IU Athletics said the pause doesn’t affect IU’s basketball, soccer, volleyball, and field hockey programs.
The IU Athletics Advisory Group recommends those who test positive be quarantined so contact tracing can indicate others who may have been exposed.

IU Athletics started voluntary workouts June 15. Student-athletes choosing not to participate this summer or academic year will continue to receive their scholarships.
