LONG BEACH, Calif. – Chris Acker and the Men's Basketball staff have added another Division I guard, bringing in a proven scorer in Grant Gondrezick II.
Grant Gondrezick II | Guard | 6-0, 180 | Benton Harbor, Mich.
An elite scorer in Michigan during his high school career, Gondrezick surpassed 2,000 career points while averaging 25.3 points and 4.4 assists per game as a senior at Benton Harbor High School. He scored nearly 1,000 points in his final season alone while leading Benton Harbor to a regional championship. After redshirting at Elon, Gondrezick made an immediate impact as a freshman at Detroit Mercy, averaging 8.4 points per game, making nine starts, shooting 41.5 percent from three, and adding 3.1 rebounds per game in his first full Division I season.
Acker on Gondrezick II:
"Grant comes from a basketball family. He understands what it takes to be a good player day in and day out. He's put the work in and knows how to put the ball in the basket. He had some impressive games this past season, and we have all the confidence in the world that he is going to bring his competitive edge and work ethic to our program here at the Beach."
With the addition of Gondrezick, Long Beach State has now brought in five Division I transfers: Shaquil Bender, Cole Farrell, Isiah Lewis, Demarshay Johnson Jr., along with Gondrezick. They will complement the team's returning players, including Derrick Michael Xzavierro, as well as the incoming freshman class of Dallas Washington and Gavin Sykes. The program has also added two other transfers, Rob Diaz III and Christian Jones.
