Texas A&M-Kingsville Freshman Guard Off to a Gritty Start in 2025-26
As a 5'7" freshman guard from San Antonio, TX, Ava Mitchell brings versatile ball-handling as a shooting/point guard hybrid to the Javelinas, shown in her high school days with 2.0 steals and 2.4 assists per game leading Johnson HS to a 23-13 playoff run[9]. In her 2025-26 NCAA debut vs. UTSA, she fearlessly hit 100% FTs (2-2) despite a tough 40-82 loss, flashing poise under pressure[1][2]. Her compact 125-lb frame and right-dominant quickness make her a pesky defender—perfect for teams needing intense, well-rounded energy off the bench without injury red flags. Watch her climb.[4][9]
