I love it when Universal Sports covers a track meet. It means these three awesome things:
- I get to watch hours and hours of coverage, much of it live, at universalsports.com, which always has a clear picture and smooth feed.
- I get to watch maybe not hours and hours but definitely hours of coverage later on Universal Sports on TV (thank you Verizon for carrying it). This isn't just highlights of the marquee - they cover every event with equal attention and appreciation...on every day of the meet and not just the final day no less!
- Jill Montgomery (@jillyb14) will be commentating! She's good people. And we all do a lot of complaining about the commentators we hear on TV. But this one is a keeper, trust me.
This weekend the World Track & Field Indoor Championships will take place in Doha, Qatar. Though Doha is eight hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time, we will still be able to track it online and on TV. The following schedule is from universalsports.com:
