I’m just hoping this doesn’t cause Maryland to cancel on Monday.

Don't worry, one guy on Rutgers tested positive the rest negative with the rapid test which isn't very accurate. So in reality no one could have it but it's why they canceled. It could have picked up a positive result from the shut down two weeks ago as the rapid test will pick up remnants of the virus.

No, the RT-PCR tests pick up the RNA remnants that linger for weeks. The issue with the rapid antigen test is more likely false negatives, and the false positives are typically from some sort of error in administrating the test.
