At the Bucknell Bison Outdoor Classic, Simms finished fifth in the discus with a 50.66m throws, which ranks first on the NEC performance list. The junior owns the best mark in the league by 3.36 meters, and he missed out on setting a new personal record by .34 meters. Simms now has a pair of NEC Field Athlete of the Week nods to his name with his first one coming on April 3, 2024.
