The final positive result among the players, coaches and other participants in the tournament was reported from daily antigen testing on March 22nd. False positive results are quickly retested using a PCR test, which is believed to be more accurate.
« Wouldn’t it be a shame to keep doing COVID testing and then you have kids who test positive or end up. » like that, and they’re not allowed to play in the Final Four, « Mulkey said. « So all you have to do is forget about the COVID tests and pit the four teams playing in the last four games against each other. »
