Five players on Tufts University’s men's lacrosse team were hospitalized after a conditioning workout led by a Navy SEAL alum, with 12 diagnosed with rhabdomyolysis.
The workout, part of a voluntary training session, has raised concerns about safety protocols, prompting Tufts University to appoint an external investigator to review the incident.
The serious medical condition, known as rhabdomyolysis, can lead to severe complications like kidney damage, highlighting the risks of intense physical training for athletes.
Collins emphasized the university's commitment to player safety, stating they are postponing all team activities until every player has been medically evaluated and cleared.
