How to live stream 2023 Women’s March Madness

The ESPN family will have every game of the 2023 NCAA Division I women’s basketball tournament. Specifically, you can catch games on ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNews, and ESPNU. Although games should be available on ESPN+, it currently remains unclear if an active TV subscription (either to a cable company or a cord-cutting service like YouTube TV) will be necessary to stream tournament games on ESPN+. The national championship game will air on ABC.
