Crews worked to disinfect Richmond High School's locker rooms and gymnasium after a student developed a staph infection, possibly of the same antibiotic-resistant strain blamed for the death of a Virginia student this week. Athletic Director Chris Rodal said the case was "athletic-oriented," and all of the locker rooms in Tiernan Center were cleaned Wednesday night. Student-athletes took their uniforms home to launder them, Rodal said. Richmond Community Schools Superintendent Allen Bourff said other areas of the high school also were disinfected.
