As someone who's been struggling with a brain tumor myself, I find her story especially poignant. Very inspiring that she's kept chugging along.

And If didn't know her story, I absolutely would have made a Lauryn Hill joke here.

Lauren's game is sold out. 10,250 tickets sold in 30 minutes.

I'm glad she's getting the award now instead of after her passing.

Props to USBWA for doing the right thing.

The cynic in me says I hope they don't end up on StubHub or eBay.

Lauren has the courage to play a game she loves under the most trying of circumstances.

It would be pretty cool if they got Pat Summitt to show up and present the award in person. I'm not sure of her health/travel abilities atm though.

Pat was recently at La Tech watching their practice. It would be great if she could attend the game.

Great story sorry I skipped it for a long time because I thought it was about the singer of the same name.
