Steven Evans (born September 19, 1991) is a former American professional soccer player.
Born in Portland, Oregon, Evans began his soccer career at Eastside United FC, which won the U.S. Youth Soccer U-18 national championship in 2010.[1] He also was an all-state player for Portland's Central Catholic High School where he helped guide the Rams to a 2007 6A State Championship. In 2010 Evans started to attend the University of Portland for which he played for their school soccer team, the Portland Pilots, where he stayed for three seasons.[1] While with the Pilots Evans earned the 2010 WCC Freshman of the Year award his first year, All-West Coast Conference selection all three seasons, and All-WCC First Team his final two years.[1] In his final season with the Pilots Evans managed a career-best 14 goals which was ranked 8th amongst the NCAA.[1]
During the summer months, Evans played for the Portland Timbers U23s in the USL Premier Development League who he started playing for in 2009.[1] While with the Timbers U23s Evans assisted on the game-winning goal in the final match of the 2010 PDL season against the Thunder Bay Chill as the Timbers won the championship match that season 4–1 in an undefeated season for the under-23s.[1]
On January 8, 2013, it was officially announced that Evans had been signed by the Portland Timbers on a homegrown player contract.[1] Evans became the second homegrown player at the club after Brent Richards who signed in 2012.[1] On December 8, 2014, Evans's option was declined for 2015 and signed a contract with Portland Timbers 2, the Timbers' USL Pro club.[2]
