Redshirt freshman Horace Simmons Jr. scored a game-high 24 points on 8-of-9 shooting from the three-point line in 21 minutes off the bench for the Dragons.
Drexel men’s basketball tipped off their season against Division II opponent Georgian Court on their home court. The Dragons took care of business against an inferior opponent, decimating the Lions, 95-43.Horace Simmons Jr. was a highly regarded recruit out of La Salle College high school. After a redshirt last season, the 6-foot-6 forward was finally able to show out in his first collegiate game.
Drake struggled to finish among traffic at the hoop, finishing 0-5 from the floor and collecting all of six his points from the free throw line. This is a concern considering Georgian Court likely rolled out the least physically imposing frontcourt the Dragons will see all season. Spiker will need stronger point guard play from Drake and Reed for the team to beat the talented teams that wait ahead of them in Colgate and their Big 5 pod match ups against La Salle and Temple.
