Coach Charlie Just is not surprised by the success that Harrod has enjoyed at Spalding, saying, "Kelly has been an absolute pleasure to coach from the time that she arrived on campus. She works hard every single day, is always positive and is one of the toughest and most competitive players that I have coached. It's no accident that she has had this type of career—she's worked for it."
