STATS -- The third-year starting senior defender often targeted the opposing team's best offensive player while averaging more than nine ground balls per game to lead the Dons to the quarterfinals of the Maryland Interscholastic Athletic Association A Conference. Considered a take-away and shutdown defender, the 5-foot-8, 160-pound Kelly will play lacrosse at the University of Pennsylvania.

SIDELINES -- Kelly maintained higher than a 4.0 grade point average during the past four years at Loyola, wrestled varsity as a freshman and switched to varsity squash as his winter sport over the past three years. Kelly worked last summer at Camp Umoja, a day camp for underprivileged inner city children.
