Six feet, long, athletic and coordinated is almost an automatic as far as getting to the next level, providing you have grades and test scores. Kayla Nevitt showed me as a baby, well middle school baller that she had the tools to be very successful on the court and she's been an integral part of Dekaney's success over the past three seasons. She accepted being a role player, nothing phased her, she never complained and always showed that "team first" mentality over everything else as she kept learning and getting even better
Her hard work paid off in a big way as she committed to Mississippi State last week and the way she was knocking shots down from everywhere at the Greater Houston Invitational, I'm thinking she'll contribute off the top in college. I mentioned grades earlier, my older daughter was actually one of Kayla's teachers and she always talked about Nevitt being a great student, well it appears she's that way on and off the court.
