Fowler Signs with Cougars - College of Charleston Athletics

CHARLESTON, S.C. – College of Charleston men's basketball head coach John Groce announced the signing of Colt Fowler to the Cougars' 2027-28 roster.

A guard out of Duncan, S.C., Fowler was named the 2025-26 South Carolina High School League (SCHSL) Class 5A Player of the Year by the South Carolina Basketball Coaches Association. Fowler was also tabbed the 2025-26 MaxPreps South Carolina High School Basketball Player of the Year after averaging 24.3 points, 10.8 assists and 5.7 rebounds last season at Byrnes High School while shooting 48 percent from the floor.

"We are really excited to add Colt to our program," said Groce. "Colt's ability to put pressure on the defense with his speed and passing ability will create a lot of open easy looks for his teammates. He puts constant pressure on the paint and fits our All Gas No Brakes game perfectly."

Both of Fowler's parents, Layne, and Missy (nee Peterson), were basketball standouts at The College. Missy ranks 14th in the women's basketball record book with 1,314 career points.
