Kim Evans came to Wichita State in 1992 from Texas to play basketball and decided to make the city her home and the sport her calling.
"I loved playing ball with all my teammates," she said. "It was amazing thing for me, college basketball."
Evans played a year professionally in Switzerland before returning to Wichita. She is trying to pass on the benefits of college and college athletics to younger generations as a coach. She coaches fifth-grade girls and second-grade boys teams for the Wichita Express and high school girls with the Missouri Phenom's Kansas chapter. She also coaches junior varsity girls at South High School.
