ESPN’s Holly Rowe is known for being one of the network’s top sideline reporters for college sports. With that responsibility comes a sometimes tenuous travel schedule.
With college football in the homestretch of the regular season, and college basketball set to tip off this week, Rowe has quite the travel schedule ahead of her for the remainder of the weekend.
Rowe is on sideline duty for Saturday night’s primetime Pac-12 matchup between No. 5 Washington and No. 20 USC in Los Angeles.
Once the game ends, she will rush to LAX to catch a flight to Paris, France, where Notre Dame’s women’s basketball team is set to take on South Carolina to open the college hoops season on Monday afternoon in the Aflac “Oui Play.”
ESPN public relations pro Bill Hofheimer broke the news of Rowe’s wild weekend itinerary on Saturday night.
By the way, kudos at halftime of #WASHvsUSC to @sportsiren. After this game, Holly is wheels up to Paris, France(!) to cover the women's college basketball opening game between South Carolina and Notre Dame in the Aflac Oui Play (Mon - 1p ET, ESPN). Holly is amazing.

Rowe quickly confirmed that she has a 10:05 flight out of Los Angeles, with a friendly plea to Delta Airlines to hold the plane for her.
