Evan is a three-year starter for Southwest. As a sophomore, he batted .300 and drove in 12 runs. In his COVID-shortened junior year, he hit .263 with a team-leading 5 RBIs. Evan was promoted from the JV to the varsity for the district tournament late in his freshman season. He played on the Southwest freshmen team while still in eighth grade. His biggest thrill in baseball was being invited to the HSBN Futures Game as a freshman.
