In addition to preparing for her senior season, Archbishop Wood’s Deja Evans locked in her basketball future when she committed to play for Albany.
When Deja Evans arrived at Archbishop Wood last fall, she still had yet to play her first minute of varsity basketball.
Evans hadn’t arrived at Wood as a total stranger. One of her teammates on the Philadelphia Belles BlueStar National Team is Wood wing Delaney Finnegan. It was Finnegan, along with some of Wood’s senior leaders like Ryanne Allen and Bri Bowen, that helped Evans feel comfortable with her new team. Evans also displayed the selfless brand of basketball that Belles coach Michael Steidle cites as one of Evans’ best skills. She demonstrated an ability to find open teammates and spread the ball effectively on offense.
As Evans grew more comfortable in Wood’s system, her impact on the court continued to grow. As the Vikings got deeper into Philadelphia Catholic League play, McDonald saw Evans start to thrive on the pressure and the big moments.
