One of the most prominent voices in the history of women's and college basketball Debbie Antonelli is being recognized in a huge way this year!

It's recently been announced that Antonelli, esteemed broadcaster for men's and women's college basketball and the WNBA,  will be a 2022 inductee to the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame.

 

During her career, Antonelli has called games for Ohio State women's basketball, Dayton Flyers men's basketball, ESPN, CSTV, Westwood One, Fox Sports, Big Ten Network, CBS and more.

This isn't the first time she's been recognized for her work, as Antonelli was a proud 2007 recipient of the WBCA Mel Greenberg Media Award. This honor recognizes a member of the media who has best displayed a commitment to women's basketball and to advancing the role of the media in promoting the women's game.

In 2020, Dr. Dish partnered with Antonelli and her 24 Hours Nothing But Net fundraiser for Special Olympics and special kids needs. Since beginning the annual event in 2019, she's raised more than $400k in donations.
