Jessica Breland, a 6-foot-3 forward from Kelford, NC , is at the top of her game and looking forward to her senior season as a leader in the UNC Women’s Basketball Program.

Cancer Hospital and wants to give kids with cancer the same shot at a comeback that she’s been working toward ever since her diagnosis.
