College sports’ largest gov- erning body hired a third party to evaluate its response to a scathing report issued al- most a year ago that criticized gender inequality in the tour- naments. Among the most visible changes noted in the progress report were “March Mad- ness” branding and increased cross-promotion for both tournaments in 2022, as well as the addition of four teams to the women’s tournament to create a “First Four” event to bring it in line with the men’s tournament structure. The NCAA men’s and women’s basketball commit- tees jointly rejected a recom- mendation to hold simul- taneous Final Fours in the same city, the report said, and NCAA leadership decided against changing the Division I basketball administrative structure. An outside firm was hired to conduct the assessment and that the NCAA was honor- ing the firm’s request to not be identified, as per company policy, NCAA Associate Di- rector of Communications Meghan Durham told The As- sociated Press in an email. “The findings of this assess- ment illustrate our commit- ment to advance gender eq- uity at NCAA championships. Thanks to a collaborative spirit, significant accomplish- ments were achieved this past year,” NCAA President Mark Emmert said. “We have said it before — our work is not finished. Gender equity must remain a priority for leaders throughout college sports and we look forward to continuing to support these efforts mov- ing forward.” The initial report published in August was done by Kaplan Hecker & Fink LLP, which was hired after the NCAA failed to provide similar amenities to the teams in the 2021 men’s and women’s Division I tour- naments. The tournaments were played in “bubbles” because of the pandemic, and play- ers blew up social media with complaints that showed dis- parities between men’s and women’s weight-training fa- cilities, food, lounge areas and gifts — prompting apologies from NCAA executives. The Kaplan report said the NCAA failed to uphold its commitment to gender equity by prioritizing its cash-cow men’s tournament “over ev- erything else” and put forth the recommendations that the NCAA has enacted or con- sidered. The issues that women’s players drew attention to have been addressed, the progress report noted. And in addi- tion to the branding improve- ments, the NCAA increased full-time staff working on women’s tournament; im- proved communication be- tween men’s and women’s bas- ketball committees; began a program to identify and track areas that need to be the same, comparable and different in men’s and women’s tourna- ment experiences; hired a third party to produce an an- nual report on gender-equity initiatives; and issued state- ments on how gender-equity issues are or will be addressed. The progress report also pointed out the NCAA in- creased the 2022 women’s tournament expenses budget by $6.1 million and that an ad- ditional $1 million would be added. Among areas in progress: hiring a full-time employee to focus on women’s and gen- der-equity issues; initiating third-party assessments of MLB to beat them,” Houston man- ager Dusty Baker said. “They are not going to beat them- selves.” The AL East has been the best division in baseball but that hasn’t affected New York very much at all. The Yankees begin the second half with a gaudy 64-28 record and a whopping 13-game lead over Tampa Bay. While Giancarlo Stanton has delivered his usual power and Clay Holmes has been one of the game’s most dominant relievers, it’s Judge leading the way for the Bronx Bomb- ers. He is batting .284 with 33 homers and 70 RBIs, join- ing Shohei Ohtani among the frontrunners for AL MVP. “I think he continues to get better and better as a leader, which has always been, I think, a positive trait of his,” New York manager Aaron Boone said. “But I would just say he’s a more complete, re- fined, veteran player that is also in the prime of his career.” Judge and the Yankees are trying to chase down the fran- chise’s first championship since 2009 and No. 28 overall. But there are all sorts of poten- tial roadblocks — both nearby and further away. The crosstown Mets are on top of the NL East, looking to hold off the Braves and take the franchise’s first division title since 2015. Each of base- ball’s Central divisions had a mediocre first half, but Mil- waukee and St. Louis have an array of stars, and Carlos Cor- rea could power Minnesota back into the playoffs after it finished last in the AL Central in 2021. Even the Chicago White Sox, who underperformed early on, showed some posi- tive signs while taking three of four at the division-lead- ing Twins in the runup to the break.

Continued from B3 lM Otero/aP Seattle Mariners center fielder Julio Rodriguez (44) jumps to catch a fly out at the wall Sunday against Texas Rangers Adolis Garcia during the second inning in Arlington, Texas. Roberts’ club is one of three teams with at least a nine- game lead in their respective divisions heading into the second half. Led by Betts and Freddie Freeman, Los Ange- les is 10 games up on Manny Machado and the San Diego Padres in the NL West. “Just a lot of good things happened in the first half for us,” Freeman said. Altuve and Houston still have a nine-game lead in the AL West, even with the win streak for Seattle. The Astros and Mariners close out their season series with seven more games this month, beginning Friday night in Seattle. “I thought the Mariners had a good team from the very be- ginning, and I told everybody that then at the time, they fin- ished extremely strong last year, and you know, you have gender-equity progress every five years; emphasizing new corporate sponsorships for the women’s tournament; pursu- ing promotional and market- ing opportunities that benefit both tournaments; building on the increased branding vis- ibility with “March Madness” courts and hoops at the wom- en’s First Four and first and second rounds. NCAA revenue surpassed $1 billion in the year before the pandemic and almost $900 million of that was tied to the media rights deal with CBS and Turner for the men’s tournament. The women’s tournament is part of a package with more than two dozen other NCAA championships that ESPN owns and pays about $34 million per year for through 2023-24. But according to an as- sessment done for Kaplan by a team of sports media and marketing experts, the wom- en’s tournament will be worth between $81 and $112 million annually beginning in 2025. The return of switch-hit- ting catcher Yasmani Gran- dal could provide a lift for the White Sox, who are looking for their third consecutive playoff appearance. The in- jured list might have a more dramatic effect on the pennant races than the trade deadline. Mets ace Jacob deGrom is coming back after he was side- lined by a stress reaction in his right scapula. Second base- man Ozzie Albies could rejoin Atlanta’s loaded lineup next month after he broke his left foot on June 14. Philadelphia slugger Bryce Harper, San Di- ego shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. and Houston right-hander Lance McCullers Jr. also could return in time to help their teams down the stretch. DeGrom, a two-time NL Cy Young Award winner, hasn’t pitched all year. He could team with Max Scherzer to give New York a dominant 1-2 punch at the top of its rotation.
