Sept. 1, 2020 SACRAMENTO – Seventeen people on seven different teams have reported positive COVID-19 tests in the first session (55/60 men) of the 2020 LVSSA/SSUSA World Masters Championships (WMC). Two cases have been reported in the second session (65-85 men) and no cases in the third session (40 Masters men and women). Only one of the cases has required hospitalization. The first three sessions of the WMC attracted 315 teams and almost 10,000 players and their families. The cases reported include: Two players and a friend from a 60AA Colorado team. Coach of a 60 AA Oklahoma team. A pitcher from a 60AA team from Nevada. A player from a 60 Major team from Minnesota. A player, his wife, and daughter from a 55AAA Southern California team. Seven players and the coach of a 55 and 60 Major-Plus teams from Texas. The initial player became ill on the second day of play. That player is being hospitalized with pneumonia. A player from a 65 Major team from Nevada. A player from a 65 Major-Plus team from California. SSUSA officials said they were going to poll all managers next week from the first three sessions of the WMC to find out if there are any additional cases. In addition, we will be checking the condition of the reported cases. That updated report will appear in next week’s Newsletter. All of the hotels in which the players stayed have been notified. |
