San Diego State football hit by mumps outbreak with 14 confirmed cases ahead of Pac-12 opener

Ahead of its upcoming conference opener against Texas State this weekend, the San Diego State football squad is facing a significant health hurdle with fourteen confirmed mumps diagnoses alongside one probable case inside the team headquarters. University officials are coordinating closely with regional health authorities to implement rigorous daily testing, contact tracing protocols, and vaccine booster distributions.

Head coach Sean Lewis has maintained strict privacy regarding the medical situation, citing federal student and health record regulations during his weekly media availability. The program is currently attempting to rebound from a three-game losing streak following a recent defeat at Toledo, bringing a 1-3 record into the new conference schedule.
