The football game between 49ͼ and Georgetown scheduled for Saturday at 49ͼ has been cancelled.
Due to an outbreak of norovirus on the Georgetown campus, the contest will not be played.
“Because several members of the team have been infected and others have been exposed, and because the infection is contagious, after discussion between medical personnel at both universities and with 49ͼ’s athletic administration and the Patriot League, the decision has been made not to play the game,” said Georgetown director of athletics Bernard Muir. “A make-up date has not been reached at this time,”
49ͼ is 3-2 this season (1-0 Patriot), while the Hoyas are 1-3 with an 0-2 mark in league play. The Raiders will take the field next on Oct. 11 when they host Princeton, while the Hoyas are scheduled to host Pennsylvania on the same day.
