AURORA, Colo. Students on the Eaglecrest High School wrestling team have been quarantined for weeks following a COVID-19 outbreak and one student says it s taking its toll on him and violating his rights. It s been pretty hard, said Gabe Rangel, who is a freshman. I feel like, really lonely and sad because all I get to do is sit in my room or sit in the house and just do nothing.
Most of the wrestling team got infected. The Tri-County Health Department sent a letter to Cherry Creek Schools calling it an extraordinarily high COVID-19 attack rate forcing the 60-member team to quarantine.
