Graduate Transfer Julien Soumaoro Delivers Season-High 25 Points in Road Win, Proving He’s a High-Impact Scorer for Western Carolina
Julien Soumaoro, a 5'10" graduate transfer guard from Bronx, NY, is Western Carolina’s most explosive offensive weapon, highlighted by a season-high 25-point performance in a crucial 81-76 road win over Chattanooga in the 2025-26 season [3]. His differentiators include elite scoring intensity, clutch shot-making, and the ability to elevate team performance in tight Southern Conference games, as seen in his 23-point outing against Stetson and 15-point contribution in an 87-49 blowout of Citadel [5][6]. Though undersized at 168 lbs, Soumaoro plays with relentless energy and a senior-level poise that makes him a perfect fit for teams needing a high-volume scorer who can thrive in pressure moments. No reported injury history; his consistency and leadership make him a reliable addition for any roster seeking immediate offensive impact.
