Simmons holding offers, thinking summer visits

Tariq Simmons of the Upward Stars has won a lot of games at HoopSeen events over the years.

Now the Columbia (SC) Keenan guard is racking up the offers and interest. Simmons told us at the Bob Gibbons Tournament of Champions that he has offers from Maryland Eastern Shore, Charleston Southern, Stephen F. Austin and College of Charleston.

He added St. Joe's, LaSalle, Virginia Commonwealth, Kansas State, Clemson, Wofford and UNC Wilmington are also interested. Simmons said he will visit VCU this summer. 

Simmons averaged over 10 points a game at the Tournament of Champions and was an all-tournament selection for the Upward Stars team.
