After playing for the club's youth teams, Evans played for the Colorado Rush senior women's team in the USL W-League for four years. In the 2014 season, Evans scored 13 goals in 12 appearances,[2] winning the league's Golden Boot award.[3]
Orlando Pride, 2017–2019
Evans was drafted in the third round (22nd overall) of the 2017 NWSL College Draft by Orlando Pride.[4] She made her first appearance for the club as a substitute against the Portland Thorns in the opening game of the season.[5] One week later, during Orlando Pride's first home game at Orlando City Stadium, Evans came off the bench to score her first professional goal, an 87th-minute equalizer in a 1–1 draw against Washington Spirit. The strike was voted NWSL Goal of the Week.
Evans was waived on January 10, 2020, in order to pursue a playing opportunity in Europe.[6]
Sporting de Huelva, 2020
On January 21, 2020, Evans signed with Spanish Primera División club Sporting de Huelva.[7] She made her debut on January 26 as a 60th minute substitute in a 1–0 defeat to Sevilla. On June 8, 2020, Evans was one of 11 players not retained under contract by the club at the end of the season.[8]
North Carolina Courage, 2020–present
In September 2020, Evans returned to the NWSL to sign with North Carolina Courage through 2020 ahead of the fall series friendlies.[9]
