Siena pauses women’s basketball activities after positive coronavirus test

Siena College has paused all women’s basketball team activities following a positive COVID-19 test result within the program’s Tier 1 personnel, which consists of coaches, athletes, team managers, and staff.

In accordance with New York state guidelines and Siena protocols, individuals who test positive are isolated and close contacts to those individuals are quarantined. The state Department of Health initiates all contact tracing and will work with the college after interviewing the individual who tested positive to determine close contacts.

The Siena men’s basketball team paused all team activities last Friday following two positive COVID-19 test results.
