Sylvia Hatchell: Jessica Breland's lymphoma in 'remission'
Posted Nov 5, 2009
UNC coach Sylvia Hatchell says Jessica Breland's Hodgkin's lymphoma has gone into remission, though it's still unclear whether the senior will be able to play this season. Hatchell said Wednesday that Breland finished her five-month course of chemotherapy last week and will have a scan next week that could determine whether she needs additional treatments. However, Hatchell says she is still leaning toward redshirting Breland this year.
