Alexa Philippu, you've been in Portland for the women's regional finals, so let's just start from the top here,

specifically at the top of the three-point arc.

What happened? Yeah.

Yeah.

It was right when

it was right when Texas and NC State were fighting for a spot to go to Cleveland and the final four.

And we actually found out because it was on the ESPN broadcast.

Turns out one of the three-point arcs in Portland

was drawn incorrectly.

Now we do have some news that we want to share with you

coming out of Portland as our next matchup is about to get underway.

Now unfortunately what they have discovered and what you're looking at right now is that

in Portland the three-point lines are different on the different sides of the court.

I had never seen or heard of anything like that happening before in my life,

let alone on a stage like the regional round.

So yes, they had played with this incorrectly drawn three-point arc for all the

sweet 16 games. They alerted the coaches before this elite 8 matchup and they agreed to proceed with the game regardless.

How did everybody react when such a major flaw was noticed?

Everyone couldn't believe it,

that this was something that no one had caught up till then that

potentially could have gone unnoticed and then in retrospect seemed almost like oh maybe we should have all

noticed this beforehand but I definitely think there's some outrage
