The ‘All American’ universe just got expanded with the premiere of ‘All American: Homecoming’ and it was fascinating to see Simone Hicks (Geffri Maya) entering a new phase of her life. Simone is now attending college and wants to be a part of the Tennis team. On the other hand, a guy named Damon (Peyton Alex Smith) is also trying to take his Baseball to the next level.

Both characters are really good in their respective sports, but they still need to do so much more. Elsewhere, Simone’s parents did not pay the money for a room on the college campus and it was her aunt who helped her by giving her space in her own house.
