(S25) - PT 3 - Early Decisions

[Thor]

Heath Evans actually started his professional sporting career as a junior Rugby player in a development squad in Australia, and was playing amatuer American football there when he was first discovered by scouts from UCLA. While he didn't have the traditional experience in the sport, the athleticism that the scouts witnessed was enough for them to believe he could develop into a serious threat on the football field.

Evans had some trouble adjusting at first, but eventually found the right role to play as a pass catching tight end. Through college he has played safety and running back but his strengths definitely lay in the tight end position.

After moving to the DSFL and ISFL the development put into his blocking skills was immediately visible, leading all tight ends in pancakes for both of his rookie seasons, however is was his third season where he truly came into his own as a receiver, with over 100 receptions and winning the right end of the year award.

While Evans only spent two seasons at UCLA he has gained a reputation with the Bruins that will live on long into the future, and he is one of the many UCLA alumni that have found significant success after leaving the schools program and moving on to the ISFL.
