Forward Simeon Carter will transfer from Iowa State, the school announced in a release on Tuesday. 

The sophomore from Charlotte, North Carolina, saw very limited playing time in his career at Iowa State. This past season, he played in just six games, averaging 2.3 minutes and 1.0 point per contest. He played in 15 games his freshman year, but averaged just 0.7 points and 0.4 rebounds per game. 

“I met with Simeon following the season and he informed me of his desire to transfer,” coach Steve Prohm said in the release. “We wish him the best and will assist him in any way we can as he looks for a new school.”

With his departure, the Cyclones now have four scholarships to fill for the 2017-18 season.
