It may register a smaller victory these days, but Boston College football continues to effectively manage risk and spread when it comes to COVID-19.

According to the school, with fall camp now open, the football program has administered 792 COVID-19 tests for players, coaches and other staff members. Out of nearly 800 tests, only one has come back with a positive result.

In a little over a month from now, the Eagles are scheduled to open the 2020 season against Ohio (Sept. 12). After that, Boston College will play its first road and conference game of the season: Sept. 19 at Duke.
