Bower got the thrill of a lifetime by covering the FIFA
worked the men's World Cup the previous summer.
Bower, who won an Emmy in 2010, has been working
with ESPN for nearly five years after a short stint with her
hometown broadcaster WCTI -12 in New Bern. She is
an associate producer for the giant sports conglomerate,
headquartered in Bristol, Conn.
"You can't ask for anything better than working on a sport,
and tournament, that you grew up watching," Bower told the
New Bern Sun Journal.
Bower remains a big soccer fan. "I loved hearing people
from home talk about how they were watching and getting
into the tournament. You never know what to expect with
women's soccer, and I was hugely surprised by the response
back home."
She and the crew were busy during the entire tournament.
"We typically worked 12-hour days, longer for U.S. games
and simultaneous games," Bower said. "Working right outside
the stadium was awesome, but at the same time, we were in
our own world sitting inside the production trucks. We stood
outside and could hear the German fans going crazy in their
match played there and could hear the fans chanting, `U-S-A!
U-S-A!' during the final."
Bower was able to work with a handful of members from
the 1999 championship team, including Mia Hamm, Brandi
Chastain and Julie Foudy. The highlight was watching the
former greats play in a pickup soccer game. "I watched them
play pickup soccer under the bridge in Frankfurt against a
bunch of local kids, which was awesome to see."
Bower, who earned her Emmy at the 32nd Annual Sports
Emmy Awards for "Outstanding Live Sports Special," which
featured the final match of the 2010 FIFA World Cup between
Spain and Netherlands.
