Mitchell also fits the description of the multi-sport athlete. She also runs track in addition to getting the job done on that 94-by-50-foot hardwood. What especially earns Mitchell her fair share of playing time is how she can make things difficult for opposing teams as a defender. Mitchell has played two seasons at the high school varsity level as an eighth grader and competed in 25 contests last season for 4A Colleton County. Her play last season contributed to a Cougars team that went from six wins in 2024-25 to 13 last season and a berth in the 4A state tournament. 

Following a lopsided loss to 5A Division 2 Westwood on the first day of this season’s Kendle Classic, 4A Colleton County bounced back by earning a lopsided victory of its own over 1A Baptist Hill. The nine points placed on the scoreboard by Mitchell played a massive role in a 42-20 Cougars victory. Mitchell primarily operates in the backcourt at the point and is in her second year at the varsity ranks since she played five games as a seventh grader. She is establishing herself as a potent deep threat. Colleton County drained a pair of 3-pointers in Saturday’s contest at Kendle Court. Both were courtesy of Mitchell.
