McKevitt is a name that is continuing to ring bells across the Palmetto State. She was part of a solid core for 5A Division 1 Wando that led the Warriors to a Lower State championship last season. McKevitt understands the art of finishing strong at the rim and approaching the game with a fearless attitude. As a 2029, she is playing up in class on the Palmetto 76ers/A’ja Wilson Elite 16U squad. Rebounding and collecting steals are also among McKevitt’s strong areas. McKevitt first played at the varsity level as an eighth grader and averaged 13.6 points, 4.6 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 2.2 steals per game as she played in all 29 of Wando’s contests in 2025-26. 

This past season would see Wando claim the 5A Division 1 Lower State championship – and get within one contest shy of winning state for the first time since 1980. McKevitt’s play was key in the Warriors’ success throughout the last few months. The freshman guard was the Warriors’ leading scorer in 2025-26 averaging 13.6 points, 4.6 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 2.2 steals per game. She tallied nine points when Wando took on Blythewood in this month’s 5A Division 1 state championship game at Colonial Life Arena. McKevitt is looking ahead to this year’s travel season where she will be part of Palmetto 76ers/A’ja Wilson Elite .  

The 2025-26 season was a banner one for Wando. McKevitt was one of the key names that led the Warriors to a 22-7 record and a Lower State championship. McKevitt played in her second season at the high school level last season and took a massive jump from her eighth grade campaign. She played in all 29 games last season for the Warriors and led the team in scoring. She averaged 13.6 points, 4.6 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 2.2 steals per contest. With her freshman campaign complete, McKevitt looks to translate that momentum into a stellar travel campaign with Palmetto 76ers/A’ja Wilson Elite . 

Summerville is no easy team to defeat. After all, the Green Wave were 5A Division 1 Lower State champions last season. McKevitt ensured that 5A Division 1 would have a new Lower State champion as her Wando team defeated Summerville by a final score of 62-53. McKevitt contributed 18 points, three rebounds, three assists and three steals to the Warriors’ cause. One of two freshmen on this season’s Wando team, McKevitt has led a solid Warriors bunch in scoring this season – 13.9 points per game along with 4.5 steals, 3.8 assists and 2.1 steals per matchup. McKevitt looks ahead to Monday’s matchup with Ashley Ridge where the Warriors will seek a 5A Division 1 Lower State championship berth. 

The task that awaits Wando over the next several weeks is to claim its first state championship since the 1979-80 season. McKevitt’s play can get the Warriors to that point. She is one of only two 2029s on this season’s Wando roster. McKevitt has played in all 23 games this season for the Warriors and leads the team in scoring averaging 13.7 points per game. The Palmetto 76ers/A’ja Wilson Elite standout is also averaging 4.7 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.1 steals per contest. McKevitt’s play has contributed to Wando earning a ranking of fifth in the most recent 5A Division 1 coaches’ poll. 

Bella delivered an outstanding performance during a three-game stretch at the Beach Ball Classic, one of the nation’s premier holiday tournaments, consistently leading Wando High School against top-tier competition. Over games on December 19th, 20th, and 22nd, Bella racked up a total of 52 points, posting 20, 22, and 10 points in each contest. She either led or shared the team scoring honors in every game, showcasing remarkable efficiency and composure in high-pressure moments against elite opponents.

After playing in 26 games last season as an eighth grader, McKevitt has embraced a “next woman up” mentality for 5A Division 1 Wando. Lower Richland is one of the tougher 4A outs in the state, but McKevitt’s 20 points ensured the Warriors would run its record to 9-1. McKevitt will find herself at the right spots to grab rebounds and understands that ball distribution is every bit as important as placing points on the scoreboard. She is one of the two freshman on this season’s Warriors roster. The speed she possesses will enable her to finish strong at the rim and can give her plenty of opportunities at the free throw line. 

Wando is one of the premier teams in the 5A Division 1 field and McKevitt will be a name that will keep the Warriors in the contenders’ conversation. She is coming off an AAU campaign where she wore the uniform of Team L.E.A.D. When she has the ball in her hands and she attacks the rim, it is very difficult to keep her in check. McKevitt adds a stellar performance in Rock Hill to her offseason which also included an appearance at the GYBC All American Camp up Interstate 77 in Charlotte. McKevitt also understands drawing contact and earning opportunities at the free throw line.
