The college football game between Portland State and South Dakota, scheduled for today, has been canceled due to an outbreak of whooping cough among Portland State players. The illness, characterized by severe coughing fits, led to the quarantine of affected players on the Vikings team and exposure to others. Both schools decided to cancel the home game to ensure the health and safety of all participants. This outbreak comes as cases of whooping cough are seeing a significant rise nationally. Boise State, scheduled to play Portland State next weekend, has released a statement acknowledging the situation and is in communication with Portland State regarding health protocols.
