Darrynton Evans: From small town kid to star running back

Darrynton Evans is a name all App State football fans have come to know and love since the running back’s 2016 arrival in Boone.

Evans scored three touchdowns in the Mountaineers’ 34-31 victory over UNC and was week two’s hero in the 56-41 victory over Charlotte, scoring four total touchdowns on 298 total yards.

“He provides a spark; he’s a great player and a great leader at the same time,” junior center Noah Hannon said. “I think that his hard work and everything he does off the field is what you see on the field. We’re happy to have him; he’s a big part of our offense.
