Against all odds, graduate student guard Kelly Jekot has prevailed this season and made an impact for Penn State.
During her 2020-21 season, Jekot suffered a season-ending injury after only nine games into the campaign.
Jekot tore her ACL in her left knee and has been recovering since to be able to play the way she has this season.
She has come a long way and has even started a few of the matches for the Lady Lions, including their most recent match against Purdue.
Junior guard Makenna Marisa said it’s awesome having her back and playing on the court.
