PEORIA — The Bradley Braves have added a wing to their list of recruiting offers.
Mason Blazer, a 6-foot-6 wing from Pennsylvania, says he’s received an offer from Bradley, according to his social media.
He was rated among the top five players in the All-American JUCO Showcase Invitational over the summer.
Blazer has reportedly drawn interest from USF, Bowling Green, Murray State, Georgia Southern, Vermont, Southern Mississippi, UMass Lowell, Quinnipiac, Western Kentucky and now Bradley.
The guard is scheduled to play junior college ball at Florida Southwestern State College in the 2025-26 season.
He played last year at St. Petersburg College, where he averaged 16.1 points and 4.3 rebounds in 32 games, all but one as a freshman starter. He shot 45% from the field and 35% from 3-point range.
Blazer was a 1,000-point career scorer at Middletown High School (Pa.).
