Evans Turning Back The Clock

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It's been quite some time since Orlando Evans has been a power on the football field.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It's not that the Trojans haven't had the talent or coaching, but it came down to putting 365 days into the program, and while it's easy to say that you are going to do it, getting it done is another story.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Coming off a 5-6 season, which included a first-round state playoff game, head coach <strong>Karlos Odum</strong> and his coaching staff have combined with a talented team to make sure that football was a priority and the student/athletes who took part did what it took to push this team back into the spotlight.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>While football is a priority and building something that will last is the goal, the Trojans have already set the tone with several prospects taking part in camps, combines and participating on 7-on-7 teams.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>In addition, what is happening in the classroom is also a huge positive – with the team GPA moving toward a 3.0 average.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As the rising senior class (2025) will be looked upon for experience and leadership, keep an eye on the future – with the rising juniors (2026) and sophomores (2027) also giving a glimpse for a bright future.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here is what this program will look like heading into spring:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph -->
