Cache County Sheriff Office

LOGAN — A Utah State University football player was charged Thursday with raping a woman who investigators say was too intoxicated to have given consent.

Jamaal Anthony Evans, 19, is charged in 1st District Court with rape and forcible sodomy, both first-degree felonies.

The incident is the latest in a series of sexual assault allegations involving USU students over the past few years.

A woman was at an off-campus party that started the night of June 17 and went into the early morning hours of June 18. The woman "stated she began drinking vodka" in the basement with a friend, according to a Cache County Jail report.
