His point total also ranked ninth in the nation for Division-II while his points per game finished fifth. On top of the scoring output, Simmons managed to maintain a 48.3-percent mark from the field, going 242-for-501, while shooting 38.0-percent from behind the arc with 54 makes on 142 attempts.

"Trey is a dynamic lead guard that can score on all three levels," said Simon. "His explosiveness and ability to create havoc in the open floor is an asset to our system. He shoots it well and can impact on-ball screen offense. He fits our culture and has a strong work ethic."
