Expert Analysis
Jim Dabbelt | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
With a major injury to her team, Evelyn’s production was forced to be increased, and all she did was lead her team into the state final four. Average 24 points, six rebounds and six steals per game. Heading to Youngstown State next season, she did some major offensive damage to everybody they played this year.

The 4th ranked point guard in her class in Ohio is geared up and ready to make a huge impact for Copley during the state tournament! The Youngstown State commit has sharpened her skills and chemistry with her teammates each year for Copley. Scoring or passing she is a star on the court! If you think she impressed in the regular season, just wait to the playoffs!

The Youngstown State University commit has hit some pretty big milestones in 2026- very recently hit 1000 career points, and Evelyn hit a new record by surpassing 400 assists! I love watching players grow their game; and every year McKnight comes back better with sharper skills, stronger defense, and a basketball IQ that finds ways to come out on top. She is going to be fun to watch at the next level! McKnight was player of the game.

Youngstown State is getting a great one in McKnight! Killer crossover and hesitation moves with the ball that make her difficult to guard. Sweet pitter patter dribble that gets her from the top of the key to the basket in a blink! Terrific shot creator.

She’s all over the place! Strong court vision and energetic both in and out of the paint. Plays a step ahead because she can read the game very well. A player who, in my opinion, could truly succeed at the next level of basketball, complete at both sides of the court. She really has the patience and IQ for the game. Handles and protects the ball at all times and can handle on ball pressure. She is sitting with offers from Youngstown State, Bellarmine, Ashland, and Findley. She also made the E40 and Run for the Roses all tournament team. She climbs up from number 21 to number 18.

This sophomore is continuing her steady play for Copley and is one of the top sophomores in Northeast Ohio this season. She grabbed 10 rebounds and had 10 assists against Revere as Copley earned a big win. She has active quick hands, able to create turnovers with good on-ball defense or can play the passing lanes well. Distributes the ball well, good court vision and her game continues to improve.
