Cassidy Hubbarth Facts
- She was a 3-sport athlete during high school and was a part of the Evanston Township High School State Championship soccer team.
- Cassidy played a lot of basketball as a kid. She was pictured with a cornrows haircut in some of her high school basketball games.
- Despite living in New York City, New York, the city area of Chicago, Illinois is her favorite place to live as that was where she grew up.
- She called her time working as a traffic reporter “an unlikely detour” from her dreams of working in sports journalism. Despite working on-air multiple times a week, she never rode in a helicopter.
- Cassidy is a die-hard fan of Chicago Bulls and because she grew up during the era of Michael Jordan, she idolized him. Her other favorite basketball teams are Chicago Bears and Chicago Cubs.
- Cassidy was recommended to Big Ten Network by their lead anchor, Dave Revsine. He told his own talent agency at the time, IF Management, that she was “a talent they could not miss out on” during the 2008 Superbowl.
- She interviewed Drake in the past and stated that he was “the hottest dude in the game.” In addition, he was very nice to her and gave her his personal restaurant recommendations in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, where he resided.
- She once called Manny Pacquiao “my guy” out of endearment as he is also of Filipino descent.
- When she 1st started working for ESPN, she was a part-time employee. She then started working for EPSN Europe and ESPN Pacific Rim and gained international prominence. This meant that no one in the United States recognized her and she had to build her reputation anew on ESPN’s Highlight Express and SportsCenter.
- Cassidy doesn’t think she will get over the death of her friend and ESPN SportsCenter anchor, Stu Scott, who passed away from cancer in 2015.
