Seth Towns To Return To Ohio State After Missing All of 2021-22 Season

Seth Towns is back.

After missing the entire 2021-22 season with a back injury, Towns will be back for a seventh season of college basketball as he’s decided to return to Ohio State next season.

Adam Jardy of The Columbus Dispatch was the first to report the news.

After having back surgery in September, the Harvard transfer initially had plans to rejoin the Buckeyes at some point during the 2021-22 season. That plan changed, however, as Chris Holtmann announced in February that he would miss the entire season.

Though Towns has been in college basketball for six years already, he is eligible to return for a seventh, and he will take advantage of it.
