After two seasons at Marquette, Symir Torrence decided to come back home and play for a Syracuse Orange team that he grew up watching. However, his first season with the Orange wasn’t a warm welcome for the Syracuse native.
Season Recap:
In 13 minutes per game, Torrence averaged 2.6 points and 2.9 assists per game. He shot 41 percent from the field and 37 percent from behind the arc but on less than one attempt per game.
Don’t be fooled by the stats. Toward the end of the season, Torrence showed encouraging signs that he and fellow junior guard Joe Girard could perhaps start together in the backcourt next season.
