ROMEOVILLE, Ill.  – Freshman Jessica Kelliher (Waukesha, Wis./Waukesha North) made quite the home debut Saturday (Nov. 21) afternoon as she helped No. 2 Lewis women's basketball to an 80-52 win over Davis & Elkins at Neil Carey Arena.

Kelliher didn't miss a shot, going 7-for-7 from the floor and 6-of-6 from the line for 20 points and eight rebounds. She had nine points in the third quarter.
