Strep Shipp

UCLA wing Josh Shipp said he wasn't feeling well for a few days leading up to Saturday's game against Texas A&M, but had no idea he had strep throat.
In fact, after today's press conference I was joking with Shipp about him saying he felt fine after going 0 for 4 and being held scoreless.
"I thought I was (fine),'' Shipp said. "I started feeling (ill) just a few days before the game, but that's no excuse."
So about the strep being contagious?
"No, that's what the antibiotics are for,'' Shipp said. "That way I'm not contagious. ...That's the least of my concerns right now."
