Senior Spotlight: Leila Evans
Posted Nov 15, 2018
Though her family had come to Chapel Hill to watch a football game, Leila Evans ventured over to Henry Stadium to watch the field hockey team. She instantly fell in love with the sport. "I played field hockey but wasn't super into it in middle school," she says. "Went to a few games, and then started playing competitively." Because her mom attended UNC, Evans grew up a Carolina fan.
