This segment of SportsCenter provided a glimpse of ESPN’s expansive weekend coverage.
ESPN and SportsCenter presented coverage of the busiest sports week in recent memory by dispatching on-air reporters, analysts and anchors, behind-the-scenes producers, statisticians, and researchers, etc., as well as a bevy of control trucks and even the “SportsCenter on the Road” bus in an effort to serve sports fans everywhere – from everywhere.
This photo gallery provides a snapshot (literally) of last week’s coverage from multiple sporting venues around the country.
