It was a celebration to bring women in business together, support and empower them. The theme this year was Champions On and Off The Court.

Attendees heard from South Carolina native Debbie Antonelli. She spoke of her 38 years of calling college hoops for both ESPN and CBS.

"To being able to inspire people to try and find their passion and joy and doing what they love. You can champion yourself as an athlete, but you can also champion yourself off the floor as well," Antonelli said. "You know tonight is a fun night. We get to wear sneakers. We're here talking hoops. I get to share my story. I'm really excited about being here."
