Wichita South’s Jayshon Simmons understands how important his job as a senior this season will be.
“The thing I am most excited about this upcoming season is being a leader, brother and role model to my team as a senior this year,” Simmons said.
Being able to play effectively in both the halfcourt and open court is what Simmons wants to improve on this season.
One area I want to improve on this year would be the pace I play at and the game,” Simmons said. “Some ways I have been working on pace is by playing in both fast and slow tempos with different teams.”
It was a busy offseason for Simmons as he was improving on his stat line last year, where he averaged seven points, three rebounds and two assists.
“During the off-season I have trained with my Dad, Coach Chuck, and Coach Brown with AAU during the summer,” Simmons said.
Simmons has big plans for the Titans this season and he wants to be at the front of the line for them to accomplish their goals.
“Some goals I have for this season are developing myself, build our team chemistry, and lead my team to state,” Simmons said.
