Toledo men's basketball signs one recruit for class of 2022

The 2022-23 Toledo men’s basketball team grew by one on Wednesday.

Javan Simmons, a 6-foot-7 forward from Gahanna, outside of Columbus, signed a national letter of intent to play for the Rockets.

Simmons was named second-team all-conference last season and honorable mention All-Central Ohio, leading Gahanna Lincoln to a berth in the regional final. He averaged 13.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists, and 1.0 blocked shot per game.

"We're really excited to have Javan become part of our Rocket family," Toledo coach Tod Kowalczyk said. "He's a very physical, aggressive post player that can play numerous positions.
