College Basketball and Televised Games
One of the factors that have been integral to the success of the NCAA men"s basketball tournament is television coverage of the games.÷ CBS began covering all games of the NCAA tournament in 1991, with the exception of the single Tuesday night so-called play-in game, which is televised by ESPN.÷ Currently, CBS airs the remaining 63 games of the tournament proper. Most areas in the U.S. see only eight of 32 first round games, seven second round games, and four regional semifinal games. Coverage of these games usually preempts regular programming schedules, which results in far fewer hours of first-round coverage, but allows the games to reach a wider audience.It is important for high school students to know more than the basics in order to succeed in college baseball recruiting and sports management scholarships.
