'Let's Do This!!': Gophers' Casey O'Brien To Undergo Surgery Again
MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- The Gopher football player who has beaten cancer four times is about to undergo surgery once again.
Casey O'Brien shared on Twitter Monday night that doctors found a small spot on his lungs. They're not sure what it is, so doctors plan on removing it this week so they can test it.
O'Brien is a backup holder for the Gophers, and played in his first game last month.

Just last week, we told you how he's teaming up with a former Gopher runner Justin Grunewald for a big fundraiser at this weekend's border battle with Wisconsin. Grunewald lost his wife to cancer.
The two are raising money for Osteosarcoma research at the University of Minnesota.
