Gustavus led 29-25 at the half, but St. Thomas outscored the Black and Gold 42-16 in the second. Of the Gusties 29 first half points, 17 were scored from the bench.

In nine years at Northern Arizona, she compiled the most wins in the program s history (117), while also directing the team to its first-ever Big Sky Conference tournament title and NCAA tournament bid in the 2005-06 season. During Kelly s tenure, the Lumberjacks advanced to the Big Sky tournament six times with two appearances in the championship game (2006, 2007), and her teams registered two of the three 20-win seasons in the program s history. In addition to quality on the floor, her squads have also been strong in the classroom, with four players earning CoSIDA Academic All-District honors including one Academic All-American. Following the 2012-13 season, the Gustavus women s basketball team achieved a significant milestone when the Women s Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) announced its Academic Top 25 Team Honor Roll following the year. Making their 15th appearance on the NCAA Division III honor roll, the Gusties were recognized as the team with the top cumulative grade point average in the country at a 3.60 a first in the program s history.

She was named ECAC Coach of the Year in 2000 and New York State Coach of the Year in 2002. Kelly began her collegiate coaching career as the graduate assistant coach at Minnesota State University, Mankato from 1996 to 1998.
