CBS sideline reporter Tracy Wolfson will be in the nation's capital this Friday to cover a pair of exciting Sweet 16 matchups.
Wolfson, an eight-time Emmy Award nominee, has been the lead reporter for CBS Sports' coverage of the NCAA Tournament since 2008. Of course, she's also known for her tremendous work as an NFL sideline reporter.
Even though Wolfson will be on the sideline to cover the second week of March Madness, her journey to Washington, D.C. has been an utter nightmare. She was initially supposed to take the train to her destination. Shortly after opting for a flight out of Newark, she realized that was a huge mistake.
"So was supposed to take the train but DC has an event at the station w/ delays expected. So decided to fly. Nothing like getting to Newark and finding out they’ve closed all checkpoints but one," Wolfson wrote on social media. "No clear, no TSA pre check or touch-less. No warning. No chance anyone’s making their flights."

Which games will Tracy Wolfson cover this Friday?
Wolfson will cover both matchups for the East Region alongside Ian Eagle, Grant Hill and Bill Raftery.
The first game on Wolfson's schedule features No. 1 seed Duke and No. 5 seed St. John's. Although the Blue Devils are the top overall seed in this tournament, they've looked vulnerable at times. The Red Storm, meanwhile, needed a game-winner from Dylan Darling to get past the Round of 32.
After the Duke-St. John's game wraps up, Wolfson will cover a showdown between No. 3 Michigan State and No. 2 UConn.
Both Sweet 16 games will be televised on CBS.
