Freshman Guard Easing into College Ball with Perfect Shooting Touch for MUW Owls
Tylen Simpson, a 5-10 point guard from Caledonia High (MS, class of 2024), is in his freshman year with the Mississippi University for Women Owls, averaging 2.0 PTS on 100% FG in the 2025-26 season per ESPN—showing early promise with flawless efficiency despite limited minutes on the JV roster. His high school pedigree as a quick, crafty handler translates to college, where his intensity and mid-range prowess (honed to 62% in recent prep clips) make him a pesky defender and spot-up threat. Ideal for teams needing gritty bench spark and free-throw reliability (echoing Big 5 parallels at 91.7%). Watch for breakout as he bulks up from 145 lbs.
