Tufts Lacrosse Players Released from Hospital After Severe Muscle Injuries

Nine players were hospitalized with rhabdomyolysis following a strenuous workout led by a Navy SEAL graduate.

All nine hospitalized Tufts lacrosse players have been discharged and are recovering after being diagnosed with rhabdomyolysis.
The injuries occurred after a 45-minute, voluntary workout supervised by a recent Navy SEAL training graduate.
Tufts University has hired experts to conduct an independent investigation into the cause of the injuries and evaluate the university's response.
Rhabdomyolysis is a rare but serious condition that can lead to kidney damage and other complications if not treated promptly.
The university aims to understand the incident fully and implement measures to prevent similar occurrences in the future.
