Originally a 2024 recruit, Bevilacqua reclassified to the 2025 class last year after transferring to George School in Newton, Pennsylvania.
With the 2025 recruiting class still years away, he hasn’t been rated by any major recruiting outlets. However, his stock is on the rise with 247Sports reporting that he’s receiving more consideration by major programs including ones that haven’t offered him, such as Ohio State.
