"Mike Simmel is unique. He is passionate and 100% committed about his desire to perform, be the best and support others.

Basketball Hall of Fame coach Bob Hurley Sr., of St. Anthony High School in Jersey City, said he got to know Simmel when he was a kid attending a basketball camp Hurley coached. Hurley said “even then Simmel’s love of the game and determination to carve out a place in basketball was evident.”
The coach attends Bounce Out the Stigma camps each summer. He described the camp as “utterly life changing.”
“I figured out that there’s nothing different about these kids. They love basketball in their own way. We teach them and have fun with it,” Hurley said. “Mike has taught me a valuable lesson about life.”
