Mason Harrell’s decision to return to Texas State wasn’t too difficult for him to make.
The Bobcats’ 2021-22 season came to a close after a 67-63 overtime loss to North Texas in the first round of the NIT on March 15. Harrell finished the year averaging 11.7 points, 3.1 assists and 2.0 rebounds per game, landing on the All-Sun Belt Second Team and collecting his second conference regular season title.
Texas State was bound to see some departures after the season with a senior-heavy squad. Fifth-year seniors Shelby Adams and Isiah Small had both exhausted their eligibility. Senior guard Caleb Asberry entered the transfer portal on March 22 and has since received offers from Loyola-Chicago, UAB and Wichita State. Harrell considered leaving, too.
