The Freeport High boys’ cross country team has been placed in quarantine because one of its athletes is a presumed positive case for COVID-19.

Freeport’s middle and high schools have been identified by the Maine CDC as among several schools statewide dealing with outbreaks of COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus. Freeport Superintendent Becky J. Foley sent two letters to the community on Monday. The first informed of a positive case at Freeport Middle School. The second reported three total probable cases, one each at an elementary school, the middle school and the high school.

Freeport Athletic Director Craig Sickels confirmed that the boys’ cross country team is in the midst of a 14-day quarantine based on interaction over two separate days with the teammate who is presumed to be positive. A presumed positive case results when a person has been in close, prolonged contact with someone who has tested positive. Sickels said the quarantine will end for the cross country runners next Tuesday or Wednesday, depending on when they were in contact.

The girls’ cross country team is not in quarantine.

Also, Freeport’s varsity and JV girls’ soccer games Wednesday against Greely were postponed because of COVID concerns, Sickels said. Additionally, Sickels will be coaching the Freeport golf team at the Western Maine Conference qualifying tournament Thursday at Natanis Golf Course because golf coach Jason Ouellette, a teacher at the high school, is also in quarantine.

The boys’ soccer, field hockey and football teams have not had their schedules impacted. The football team is scheduled to begin its 7-on-7 touch/flag season at 6 p.m. Friday, hosting Gray-New Gloucester.
