Presented by Cowboy's Air Conditioning & Heating in the annual celebration, UTSA men’s basketball will use the final home game as the opportunity to celebrate the Roadrunner seniors on Senior Night, honoring Stanley Borden, LJ Brown, Mo Njie and Jamir Simpson, who will make their final appearances on the court at the Convo.
Stanley Borden
A graduate student joining the Roadrunners this season after four years as a member of Duke’s squad, including the 2025 Final Four squad that played in San Antonio last April. An early-season injury cut his Roadrunner career short, halting the season after just three appearances. The seven-foot grad student originally from Istanbul, Turkey has played in eight carer games, snagging six rebounds in his three appearances for UTSA. He is a graduate of both Duke and Istanbul International Community School, where he led his team to the Central-Eastern European Schools Association Division A Championship and played for the Portuguese U20 National Team during the 2021 FIBA European Group A Challenger.
LJ Brown
The son of jersey-retired UTSA legend, Hall-of-Famer and former Spurs player Devin Brown, he’s wrapping his second year with the Roadrunners. After seeing limited action in his first season, Brown has become a part of the UTSA lineup in American Conference play, starting his first career game in the win at Charlotte. Before UTSA, Brown played at Presentation College in South Dakota with 25 appearances and 20 starts, averaging 8.4 ppg, 2.2 rpg and 1.0 spg. For the Roadrunners, Brown played 20 games with two starts, averaging 2.1 ppg and 1.4 rpg with 14 steals and 10 assists this season. He is a San Antonio product out of Johnson High School.
Mo Njie
A graduate student in his second year at UTSA after transferring from SMU and Eastern Michigan before that, Njie hails from Dayton, Ohio. The 6-11 center saw action in 30 games for the Roadrunners with 15 starts – both seasons cut short by injury. For the Roadrunners, Njie scored 71 points with 80 rebounds, 17 blocks and four assists. In total across his career, Njie appeared in 96 games with 40 starts, with 3.2 ppg and 2.9 rpg. He earned his undergraduate degree at UTSA last year. Njie played post-grad prep ball at DME Sports Academy in Florida and helped the squad to a third-place finish at nationals. In high school, he led Centerville High School to two district titles, garnered three school records and earned All-State second-team honors after averaging 15.0 points, 10.0 rebounds, 4.5 blocks and 2.2 assists as a senior.
Jamir Simpson
Another graduate student, Simpson proved to be UTSA’s steadiest scoring threat all season with a 16.2 ppg average that ranks eighth in the American, along with 4.0 rpg, 2.4 apg and 1.0 spg across his 28 games and 27 starts this season. Simpson came to UTSA after continuously proving himself and raising the quality of his leagues, previously playing at Southern Utah, Wisconsin-Parkside and Pikeville – playing in three different divisions of college basketball with two all-conference nods. In total, Simpson has played in 140 college basketball games with 129 starts. He’s scored 1,986 points in college, 711 rebounds, 236 assists and 92 steals, averaging 14.2 ppg, 5.1 rpg and 1.7 apg. He’s registered 108 double-figure scoring performances, including 38 games of at least 20 points. Simpson is from Lima, Ohio and Lima High School, where he was an All-State third-teamer following his senior year and led the team to two Final Fours and the Regional Final in two additional years.
About the UTSA Roadrunners
The Roadrunners are coming off an absolute heartbreaker after East Carolina collected an untimely foul in the final three seconds, using a trio of free throws to retake the lead and complete its comeback to an 82-81 setback for the Roadrunners after UTSA led for over 22 minutes. UTSA hosts Wichita State in the lone meeting with the Shockers this season, holding a win in the only other WSU trip to the Convo. The Roadrunners have shot at least 41.5 percent from the field in five of the last seven games, including a season-high 57.4 percent against ECU. UTSA averages 69.5 ppg on 40.2 percent shooting, 11.8 fast break points a game and 35.8 rpg. At fifth in the American, UTSA also registers 4.3 bpg.
The eighth-best scorer in the conference, Simpson puts up 16.2 ppg and has 26 double-figure games this season while shooting 40 percent from the field with 4.0 rpg. He’s up to 12 games of 20+ after reaching that mark in three of the last four games. Making his presence felt since returning from injury, freshman Dorian Hayes is averaging 18.5 ppg the past two outings and puts up 8.9 ppg on the season. Also hot coming down this stretch of the season, Brent Moss averages 9.6 ppg and has hit double-figures in three of the last five games. No. 2 on the team in scoring at 9.8 ppg, Austin Nunez was injured against North Texas and hasn’t reentered the lineup. Leading on the boards, Moss’ 4.6 rpg runs second to Baboucarr Njie at 5.2 rpg – in addition to the sophomore’s American-fourth 1.7 bpg and 8.9 ppg scoring.
About the Wichita State Shockers
Coming in with an 11-5 conference record, the Shockers are battling Tulsa for second in the American in the third season under Paul Mills. Wichita State has won four straight since falling at home to South Florida, going 6-4 on the road this season. An offense based out of the half court and not built on the run (7.6 fast break ppg) or the three (7.2 threes per game), the Shockers average 77.7 ppg on 44.4 percent shooting, giving up 70.7 ppg. WSU averages 40.7 rpg despite a shorter overall roster, giving only 10.3 turnovers per game but also only forcing 11.1.
A top-50 national scorer at No. 2 in the conference, UNC Greensboro transfer Kenyon Giles averages 19.2 ppg while shooting 42.7 percent from the field, going 37.9 percent from the perimeter as the team’s No. 1 three shooter with 96 on the year. East Tennessee State small forward transfer Karon Boyd chips in 11.0 ppg with 5.8 rpg, while 7-foot-2 junior center Will Berg tops the squad with 8.2 rpg and 39 blocks, adding 8.8 ppg since transferring from Purdue.
Series History
The Roadrunners trail 4-1 in the short series with the Shockers after dropping a 69-64 setback last year at Koch Arena. UTSA trailed by just one point at halftime in a low-scoring affair. The game had 10 lead changes and five ties, and the Roadrunners built up an eight-point lead by the middle of the second half. However, the Shockers overtook UTSA in the final seven minutes after scoring on five straight possessions, holding off UTSA for the five-point win. In the only game at the Convo, UTSA defeated Wichita State last January after dropping 15 threes, shooting 52.6 percent from the field and 50 percent from the perimeter in the 88-75 victory.
