Seems recently that every softball game has been available on espn+ but not the baseball games? Is there a reason this? Not knocking softball as the girls are killing it with an 8 game win streak but would like to be able to watch more baseball games as well. Didn’t know if it was a contract thing, available broadcasters, etc.
Thanks

Didn’t know if it was a contract thing, available broadcasters, etc. Thanks I think that's an easy one. I think all sports (minus golf and tennis) are in the rotation for game day coverage. I also think that football has priority over all the other sports for coverage. Probably, the softball games have been played mostly on days that football, volleyball, or soccer have not been scheduled in Cullowhee. With only one set of cameras and limited personnel to broadcast the games, only one sport per day is going to get coverage - if several are scheduled the same day. I know that football has taken precedence over baseball a couple of times, etc. I'm sure there is a priority order of coverage (I don't know what it is), but it also ensures women's sports receive equal converge. |

Thanks, hoping next year when volleyball, soccer, and football move back to the fall that will open more baseball spots. Was just looking over the games and appears you’re right. Most sports shown on the same day were all away or one team was home. |

Most sports shown on the same day were all away or one team was home. Baseball usually has pretty good coverage by Daniel Hooker during normal seasons. Looking at the schedule online, now that football is over and basketball is over, it looks like more games will be broadcast. |
