Big Rapids, Mich. - Lewis University redshirt senior Jamie Johnson (South Holland, Ill./Marian Catholic) and sophomore forward Jessica Kelliher (Waukesha, Wis./Waukesha North) combined for 53 points as the No. 20 Flyer women's basketball team rallied from a 10-point, 2nd quarter deficit to claim the 82-57 regional victory over Ferris State at Jim Wink Arena on Sunday (Nov. 27) afternoon.

Johnson finished with a game-high 27 points, including 19 points and five three-pointers in the second half, while Kelliher collected 26 points and nine rebounds on 12-for-18 shooting. Johnson added a game-high five assists for Lewis, as the Flyers had 25 helpers on their 34 baskets.
