She lives here in my pleasant near us. They are family friends. Her son is a sophomore at Clemson. She is a TV analyst for ESPN and Fox for men and women basketball games. She has called many CU games.
She raised $80,000 for special olympics by making 2400 free throws over a 24 hour period last week. She shot 94%!

Here is a part of the article.

Analyst Deb Antonelli raises over $80K for Special Olympics through 24-hour free throw fundraiser

AP | 6:37 am EDT May 21, 2019

NEW YORK (AP) — Special Olympics has always been near and dear to basketball analyst Deb Antonelli.


Her 21-year-old son Frankie is a Special Olympics athlete who just completed his sophomore year in Clemson University's LifeProgram.

She wanted to do something to help raise money and awareness for South Carolina Special Olympics. So about a year ago, the college basketball and WNBA analyst came up with the concept of '24 Hours of Nothing But Net." She vowed to make 2,400 free throws — 100 per hour— for 24 straight hours. She did just that over the weekend, making 2,400 of 2,553 free throws, hitting at an amazing 94% accuracy, at the Mount Pleasant Town Hall gym.

Antonelli, who lives in the area, has already raised over $80,000 and that number is growing as more people have heard about the feat.
