SportsCenter
SportsCenter (SC) is an American television sports news broadcasting show broadcast by ESPN. Originally anchored by Chris Berman, George Grande, Greg Gumbel, Lee Leonard, Bob Ley, Sal Marchiano and Lou Palmer, it premiered on September 7, 1979. Cristina Alexander, Victoria Arlen, Matt Barrie, Nicole Briscoe, John Buccigross, Linda Cohn, Kevin Connors, Shae Cornette, Elle Duncan, Michael Eaves, Jay Harris, Alyssa Lang, Steve Levy, David Lloyd, Zubin Mehenti, Kevin Negandhi, Stephen Nelson, Arda Ocal, Kelsey Riggs Cuff, Amina Smith, Ryan Smith, Hannah Storm, Gary Striewski, Scott Van Pelt and Christine Williamson currently serve as anchors. The show covers various sports teams and athletes from around the world and often shows highlights of sports from the day. Originally broadcast only once per day, SportsCenter now has up to twelve airings each day, excluding overnight repeats. The show often covers the major sports in the United States including basketball, hockey, football, and baseball. SportsCenter is also known for its recaps after sports events and its in-depth analysis.
The show has broadcast more than 60,000 episodes, more than any other program on American television; SportsCenter is broadcast from ESPN's studio facilities in Bristol, Connecticut, Washington, D.C., and Los Angeles.
As of March 2023, SportsCenter normally runs live at the following times:
The program's runtime and starting time depend on the games' runtime. In case a game overlaps the starting time of any SportsCenter edition, it is occasionally moved to either ESPN2 or ESPNews (depending on whether one of the networks is carrying an event) until the event concludes. Conversely, SportsCenter may start early and run longer if the preceding event finishes early or breaking sports news requires it.
Most editions of the show originate from a studio at ESPN's headquarters in Bristol, Connecticut. However, the Scott Van Pelt edition of SportsCenter has been produced out of a studio in Washington, D.C., inside the ABC News bureau since 2020, in the former studio of Around the Horn. The 1 a.m. Eastern edition of SportsCenter has been produced out of ESPN's Los Angeles Production Center at L.A. Live since 2009; that edition also is repeated during the overnight hours.
ESPN also produces short 90-second capsules known as SportsCenter Right Now, which air at select points within game telecasts on the network and sister broadcast network ABC to provide updates of other ongoing and recently concluded sporting events.
In addition to providing game highlights and news from the day in sports outside of the scheduled slate of games (including team player and management transactions, injury reports and other news), the program also features live reports from sites of sports events scheduled to be held or already concluded, extensive analysis of completed and upcoming sports events from sport-specific analysts and special contributors, and feature segments providing interviews with players, coaches, and franchise management in the headlines. In addition to airing simulcasts or network-exclusive editions on sister networks ESPN2 and ESPNews, the program also produces short in-game updates during sports events aired on ABC and until 2017, an interstitial play countdown segment for fellow network Disney XD.
Some sports leagues and organizations, including the National Basketball Association (NBA), National Hockey League (NHL), and college athletic conferences that are members of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) and the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA), allow for brief highlights to be shown while a game is in progress. From 2006 to 2013, Major League Baseball only allowed ongoing game highlights to air during SportsCenter within the Baseball Tonight Extra segments in the broadcast. The National Football League (NFL) does not permit the use of highlights for games that are ongoing at all, outside of those featured within its own live game broadcasts on the league's broadcast partners.
