News from our alumni.
Match reports, awards and milestones from G6:9 Foundation players at U.S. colleges and beyond.
Evans scores his first North Carolina goal, and shows what he believes
On Senior Night at Dorrance Field, Evans Dapaah ran onto Luca Nikolai’s pass in the 84th minute to put No. 15 North Carolina ahead against Lawson Abass’s NC State. As he celebrated, he pulled his shirt over his head to show the words he had worn underneath all season: Jesus is King. NC State equalised late for a 1–1 draw.
The Daily Tar Heel told his story, from local teams in Accra to the G6:9 Foundation showcase where Campbell first recruited him. “I knew God was working during my process to come to America,” he said.
The ACC tournament begins: Evans Dapaah’s North Carolina host California, and Lawson Abass’s NC State face Virginia Tech.
Tweneboa Kodua’s SMU, the No. 1 seed, play at home on Sunday 8 November. Three G6:9 Foundation alumni, one tournament.
