Oh, Hello: St. Bonaventure PG Dasonte Bowen Commits to Penn State

Penn State men’s basketball received another roster boost with a commitment from St. Bonaventure transfer Dasonte Bowen earlier today:

A point guard, Bowen began his college career at Iowa before transferring to St. Bonaventure for the 2024-25 season. He put together two very solid seasons for the Bonnies and led the team in assists in 2025-26. The NCAA granted him a fifth season of eligibility after his 2024-25 season was limited to just 10 games due to injury. With longtime Bonnies head coach Mark Schmidt retiring, Bowen has decided to join Penn State for his final season of eligibility.

Bowen shot just 41% from the floor last season , though his assist rate was 10th in the Atlantic 10. This looks like a decent pickup for Penn State, but we will see if he readjusts to the level of competition in the Big Ten after making just nine starts in his two seasons at Iowa. He is not the first St. Bonaventure player to transfer to Penn State. Izaiah Brockington joined the Nittany Lions from the Bonnies in 2018.

Welcome, Dasonte!
