Sunday night’s Connecticut, Notre Dame NCAA women’s basketball National Semifinal game delivered a 1.8 overnight rating, up six percent from last year’s first semifinal tilt between eventual national champion Texas A&M and Baylor (1.7).

On a market-by-market basis, Hartford was the highest-rated market for both semifinal games, delivering a 17.8 metered market rating for the UConn-N.D. matchup and a 7.5 for the Stanford-Baylor game. Other notable markets for the first semifinal game (UConn-ND) were Knoxville (5.1) and Nashville (4.0).

The second National Semifinal game between Stanford and Baylor registered a 2.2 overnight rating, which is equal to last year’s UConn-Notre Dame semifinal.  Notable local market ratings are Knoxville (6.5), Nashville (5.0) and San Antonio (4.5).

A part of the Internal Communications team at ESPN, I began with the network in 2010 as part of the College Sports PR team. Always an avid sports fan and not an athlete – I grew up a huge fan of the Hartford Whalers, while also watching my brother compete at different levels. I became the manager of several high school sports teams and continued that hobby into college. While at Quinnipiac, I worked in the Sports Information Department, which led me to a summer internship at the New Haven Ravens, a AA baseball team, and an eventual job with the Athletic Communications Department at the University of Connecticut. After my five-year stint at Connecticut, I spent six years as Director of Communications at the BIG EAST Conference in Providence, R.I. before joining ESPN.
