Mount St. Joseph University women's basketball player Lauren Hill past away last night after a lengthy battle with brain cancer.  The 19-year-old made headlines last year when she played on the freshman team at the Cincinnati school.  She was initially given weeks to live, but played the entire season while raising over one million-dollars for cancer research.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
