HOUSTON – He was brought into the Grand Canyon men's basketball program for one year to make an impact on the court and help build a foundation for years to come and that is exactly what Grandy Glaze accomplished. The graduate senior transfer has been named as the recipient of the 2016 Riley Wallace award, given to the top transfer in Division I college basketball.
The awards have continued to file in for Glaze, picking up his fifth honor since the regular season concluded. Glaze was named Second Team All-WAC along with being named to the All-WAC Newcomer team and in the first postseason win as a member of Division I over South Carolina State, Glaze was named Most Valuable Player in the John McLendon Classic. Along with Joshua Braun, Glaze was also named to the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) All-Region 6 Second Team.
Glaze transferred to GCU from Saint Louis and became an instant difference maker on the court, leading the WAC in field goal percentage at 59.6 percent and ranked second in rebounds pulling down 8.8 boards a game. The native of Toronto, Ontario was a three-time WAC Player of the Week honoree, the second most in conference this season after recording a team-high 14 double-doubles this year.
It was a memorable season for GCU, with its most successful season in Division I posting a 27-7 overall record with 11 wins in the Western Athletic Conference. The Riley Wallace Award release can be found here.
