1on1 with Jon Evans


After 40 years in television news, you'd think I've asked every possible question. Not true. "1on1" gives me the chance to interview interesting, successful people in a different way, so we all learn something new about their journey. I hope you enjoy the conversations.

Trot Nixon is one of the most decorated athletes to come out of Wilmington. High school Player of the Year in football and baseball, Nixon passed up a scholarship to play quarterback at N.C. State to pursue his dream of playing major league baseball. He won a World Series with the Boston Red Sox in 2004, and spent more than a decade in the big leagues. Now eight years out of baseball, Nixon still spends time on the field, coaching and watching his two sons play the same sports he did.
