Students become ill at Notre Dame sports camp

Posted: Updated:

South Bend, IN (CNN) - More than a hundred high school students are recovering this morning from a stomach illness they got at a sports camp.

The camp was being held on the University of Notre Dame campus in South Bend, Indiana. According to the school, campers reported symptoms like that of the flu. Some of the students were even sent to the hospital. At this point, the school says, they aren't sure what's behind the illness.

"There's a possibility it's a food related illness. There's a possibility there's a virus. We're working very closely with the county health department. They've taken samples from students," says Dennis Brown, Spokesman for the University of Notre Dame.

The county health department says there's a chance the kids contracted the norovirus.
