Southern Miss opens its season with a dominant 82-35 victory over Tougaloo

8 HOURS AGO • Associated Press

Starting in regular-season opener Weston (undisclosed) is starting in Monday's game against Tougaloo, according to Dima Mixon of The Pine Belt News.

Impact Monday will mark Weston's first game since the 2024-25 season, when he was enrolled at Tennessee State. For TSU, he averaged 16.0 points and 4.8 rebounds across 24 starts. However, late in that same season, Weston dealt with an issue that kept him out not only for the rest of the 2024-25 season but also for all of the 2025-26 campaign. He hopes to avoid that problem this year.

Doesn't see exhibition action Weston (undisclosed) did not take the court in Wednesday's 101-72 exhibition loss to Houston Christian.

Impact While Weston remains listed on the Southern Miss men's basketball roster, it's unclear what's keeping him off the court. He last appeared in the 2024-25 season for Tennessee State and averaged 16.0 ppg before his season was cut short by an unspecified injury. Furthermore, given he started his career with Seton Hall in 2021-22 (but only played one game), there could be an eligibility issue. Perhaps further clearance will be provided ahead of Monday's season opener against Tougaloo.
