Evans To Join Crusaders In ’27
Stella Evans (5’7″, PG, Crestwood Prep/United Mission, 2027) of Toronto, ON has verbally committed to attend the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, MA, of NCAA’s Patriot League.
Evans as a point guard remains very calm under pressure and seemingly doesn’t get rattled with what opponents throw her way. That, her ability to think the game, and her being a very present scoring threat will make her a very valuable player at the next level.
In 2025, Evans made the Canadian National Team, helping them to a silver medal finish at the 2025 FIBA U16 Women’s AmeriCup in Irapuato, Mexico. There, she averaged 4.3 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.7 assists, highlighted by a 8 point, 5 assist and 3 steals performance in her game against Panama.
She has a championship a Championship on her résumé. Evans was a major contributor to United Mission’s 2025 Adidas 3SSB 16U championship at the Palmetto Road Championships in Rock Hill, SC. There, she played alongside Crestwood Prep teammates and NCAA commits Avery Arije (Notre Dane) annd Ashley Vande Ven (Arizona).
Look for Evans and her Crestwood team to make a very deep run at the OSBA Championships, where her team is certainly among the preseason favourites.
