I believe the NFHS backs you on that vote:

ART. 5 . . . A player holding the ball:

a. May not touch the floor with a knee or any other part of the body other than hand or foot.
b. After gaining possession while on the floor and touching with other than hand or foot, may not attempt to get up or stand.

If nothing other than the hand or foot touched the floor, I can't see traveling on this, unless she moved her pivot foot.
