(Feb. 8, 2011) - Former Broad Run High School standout offensive lineman Taylor Evans, who helped the Spartans capture back-to-back VHSL Division 4 state football titles, has accepted a full ride offer to play next year at Robert Morris University.
Evans played a post grad season in the fall at Fork Union Military Academy and is now enrolled at Robert Morris for the spring semester. The 6-foot-3, 295-pound Evans is part of a recruiting class for Robert Morris that includes 19 players.
Robert Morris is located in Moon Township, Pa. and the school with an enrollment of 5,000 plays in the Northeast Conference in the NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision. The Colonials went 8-2 in the regular season in the fall and fell to North Dakota State in their first ever NCAA D1 FCS playoff appearance. The Colonials were co-champions of the NEC with a 7-1 mark.
The Colonials have only had one head coach -- Joe Walton who started the program in 1994 after 35 seasons in the NFL including a lengthy tenure as the New York Jets head coach (1983-89), two years as the offensive coordinator for the Pittsburgh Steelers (1990-91) and seven years as a player with the Washington Redskins and New York Giants.
