During her freshman year, the Green Terror won seven games, but then finished with a record of 19-9 in her sophomore campaign, earning a spot in both the Centennial Conference and ECAC South tournaments. After a 19-12 junior season, the Green Terror finished 21-8 and won the Centennial Conference championship and the league's automatic qualifier to the NCAA Division III Tournament. Kellen was a member of the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) at McDaniel, serving as the social media chair. She was also president of the Exercise Science club and worked as a counselor at the McDaniel and Gilchrest-Zanni volleyball camps and as an instructor at the Westminster (Md.) volleyball league. She is a 2016 graduate of McDaniel with a Bachelor of Arts in Exercise Science.
