In 2018, Evan Simon completed 132 of 249 passes for 2,756 yards, 30 touchdowns and 10 interceptions. He rushed for 662 yards on 122 carries and 12 touchdowns.

“Evan’s ability to recognize and communicate what he was seeing on the field this year helped him in his progression from being a first year sophomore starter to a second year junior returning starter,” said Head Football Coach Dave Hahn.  

Colleges are taking notice of the Junior quarterback. He has offers from schools like Colorado, Lehigh, West Virginia, Rutgers, Temple, Pittsburgh, UMass, Connecticut and more to come. 

“I’m excited to see where we can take him next year in terms of growth.  With 29 starts under his belt, he has seen a lot and should continue to grow off of that experience.”  

Going into his senior season, Evan will be one of the top players in Pennsylvania to watch in 2019. He is currently ranked fourth best player for the Class of 2020 by 247sports.com
