Well-deserved.
Hallgren has been dealing with lung cancer since her undergrad days at Michigan while playing indoor volleyball.
"Two weeks later, I got the call… it was cancerous, and I'd likely had it for about five years. In January, I underwent surgery to. I was extremely fortunate that I didn't have to undergo chemotherapy and that the surgeon was willing to attempt my surgery laparoscopically so I could continue playing."
"In March of this year I finally began to feel like myself and I owe a huge part of that to my teammates and staff at UCLA," Hallgren revealed."I graduated in June from UCLA and traveled for most of the summer. Unfortunately, now I'm starting the job hunt and considering playing indoor overseas. Before this experience, I was super organized and probably would have had a job lined up months ago. Now I want to see what comes my way and live in the moment.
