College career
Multiple universities, including USC and Stanford, attempted to recruit Hasenauer. However, she ultimately elected to ply her trade with the Oregon Ducks. As a freshman, she played in all 19 of Oregon's games, starting all but one. Her 5 assists was a team-best, and she was subsequently named to the Pac-12 All-Freshman team. Over the next two seasons, Hasenauer started every single match. She demonstrated a propensity to shoot on a frequent basis, ranking seventh in the Pac-12 in shots as a sophomore. On August 30, 2019, she fell one shot short of tying Oregon's record, peppering Portland State's goal with 10 attempts in a 4–2 victory over the Vikings. Hasenauer's quick trigger paid off, as she scored her first collegiate goal in the win. In the postponed 2020 season, she received recognition on the All-Pac-12 Third Team, her second-ever conference award.Hasenauer kicked off her senior season with a bang, registering a goal contribution in all 6 opening games. Her streak was capped off by a Pac-12 Player of the Week honor in mid-September 2021. At the conclusion of the season, she was named to the All-Pacific Region Second Team for her performances. Hasenauer then played in a fifth year with Oregon, taking advantage of the extra season of NCAA eligibility offered to athletes due to the COVID-19 pandemic. She started all 19 matches, ranking third on the team in minutes played. She led the team in assists and broke the Ducks' program record for assists in a career.
