A Huge Weekend for the Sport Fan.

It is another big sport weekend here in the US, so here's a guide to what to watch or follow...

  • NCAA Women's first and second rounds Saturday-Tuesday on the ESPN family of networks. Lady Techsters will play first round at the CenturyTel Center, and according to a report, CTC is sold out of its ticket allotment for the Techsters game against Rutgers, who made it to the Final Four a few years ago (and thus Don Imus and his "nappy headed hoes" comment). Southland tournament winner McNeese State (Cowgirls) will be in the other first round game at CTC, as they play A&M.
  • NCAA D-I Men's 2nd round on CBS and Turner Sports. Love the reconstructed version of the 1993 CBS theme song.
  • 12 Hours of Sebring, the American LeMans Series season opener. Listen live at Radio Lemans, the best motorsport announcing team on earth, and watch it on ESPN3. ABC will have a condensed taped version Sunday afternoon, counteracting with the Cup race from Bristol on Fox.
  • NCAA D-I Men's Wrestling Championships and BELLATOR 37. Two good reasons to love combat sports. The NCAA D-I Wrestling Championships from Philly will air live on ESPN (the mothership) at 6:30pm Central (7:30pm Eastern), while BELLATOR 37, featuring the featherweight quarterfinals will air live on MTV2 at 6pm Central (7pm Eastern).
So there you have it, some good viewing options for this weekend!
