In mid September, the Tufts University lacrosse team hosted an optional workout with a duration of 45 minutes that was under supervision of the Tufts staff. This past season Tufts was successful in managing to win the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division III championship. A Tufts alumni who had recently graduated from Navy Seal training was in charge of this workout and incorporated similar exercises in this workout from which he had to do during his training. Following the workout, nine out of roughly 50 participants were hospitalized and diagnosed with Rhabdomyolysis best known as Rhabdo. Rhabdo is a condition in which the muscles leak components in the bloodstream meanwhile breaking down. This can directly affect the kidneys and other organs in the human body. While rare, this condition, if severe, can be fatal. IV\u2019s are often used when treating Rhabdo to flush out toxins and to supply the patient with surplus electrolytes and fluids. \u201cAs a coach, my primary responsibility is to keep our players safe, both in training and off the field,\u201d said Pace Lacrosse coach, Coach Winter. \u201cRecent events at Tufts University have shown how quickly things can go wrong.\u201d \u201cWe\u2019re taking steps at Pace to ensure our athletes understand the risks of overexertion, dehydration, and other health hazards.\u201d \u201cI urge players to listen to their bodies, communicate openly, and prioritize safety above all.\u201d \u201cThis is about preventing unnecessary harm and staying healthy to continue competing at their best.\u201d Tufts has taken action hiring a lawyer to investigate the situation and to determine what measures the university should take as a response. All of those who were hospitalized were discharged in late September. \u201cWe are happy to share that all members of the men\u2019s lacrosse team that were admitted to the hospital with Rhabdomyolysis (Rhabdo) have been discharged,\u201d Tufts University said in response to these events. \u201cWe want to express how grateful we are that the team members have returned to good health. We commend the team\u2019s resilience, admire how they cared for one another during a difficult time, and thank their families for their unwavering support.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
