NEW HAVEN, Conn. — Increased COVID-19 positivity rates in Connecticut have led to Albertus Magnus College changing its spectator policies.

Spectators for indoor events like swimming & diving, women's basketball, and men's basketball, must be members of the Albertus Community.

Players on the home and away teams will also be allowed to bring two family members to the facility as long as they are in compliance with the school's vaccination policy.

All guests must have received primary vaccination and a booster shot or provide a negative PCR COVID-19 test within the last 72 hours prior to their visit if not booster eligible. Guests must also wear masks at all times, the college said.

For outdoor sports, the college will continue to allow spectators at all events with no limit on the number of people in attendance.
