Inspirational story on the lady broadcaster tonight's game

Deb Antonelli, a former player at NCSU, is the lady's name. This article will tell you all you need to know to have a new definition for bravery and heart. She and her husband have a son with Down's Syndrome, and as you would hope, the son of two college athletes was never left to just exist. If this article doesn't leave you with both a smile on your face and a tear in your eye, then you might at well call the EMTs because, son, you're already dead.
It has a connection to Kay Yow, former women's coach at NCSU, and to Clemson University. I'm telling you, this story has it all! It's a movie, waiting to be made.

She’s super knowledgeable and shares her thoughts in a way that appeals to both basketball junkies and the casual fan. She’s also an outstanding human being.
