ESPN package offers coverage of early rounds

Residential and commercial subscribers to the 1996-97 ESPN Full Court basketball television package are viewing first- and second-round games of the NCAA Division I Women's Basketball Championship that are not otherwise being televised in their respective markets.

Subscribers are receiving live telecasts of selected games played March 14 through March 17 at no extra cost. The telecasts include games that otherwise are not available as part of ESPN's and ESPN2's coverage of the Division I Women's Basketball Championship.

The number of games being offered per day depends on those games' distributors, and available telecasts vary by market.
