Kyleigh Welsh brings efficient interior minutes and veteran reliability for NJIT
In the 2024-25 season, Kyleigh Welsh gave NJIT efficient low-usage production with 7.6 points and 5.0 rebounds per game while shooting .560 from the field, and in 2025-26 she has continued as a steady frontcourt piece, appearing in 20 games with 175 total minutes and 13 made field goals on 24 attempts for a .542 clip. She’s a 6-0 forward who fits as a dependable rebounder and finisher rather than a high-usage scorer, and NJIT’s notes on her seven Dean’s List honors suggest the kind of disciplined, program-first veteran coaches love to stash in the glue-player section of the roster.
