Lineman Thomas Evans has committed to play college football for the University of Richmond.
Evans was the 2011 Western North Carolina Athletic Conference Defensive Player of the Year and a Citizen-Times All-WNC selection after the 6-foot-3, 295-pound senior made 58 tackles and nine sacks. He was also selected to the NCPreps.com all-state team. Evans and the Franklin defense allowed just 13.8 points a game.
Along with fellow All-WNC selections Jacob and Parrish Young, he was a four-year starter and part of 35 wins for the WNCAC champion Panthers (13-1).
Franklin coach Josh Brooks said that Evans committed after taking an official visit to Richmond this weekend. Evans had also planned to take visits to Gardner-Webb and Western Carolina University.
