Versatile Marist glue guy with length, toughness, and shot-blocking juice
Trace Salton is a 6-5 forward for Marist who has carved out a real role with his energy, versatility, and defensive instincts. In the 2025 season, he averaged 1.2 points and 1.5 rebounds in 28 games, and Marist’s own notes say he’s an “all-around skilled small forward” who can impact a game beyond scoring. He has been a multi-year program piece, earned MAAC Rookie of the Week honors in 2022-23, and already had a four-block opener in 2026. If you want a hard-playing, low-drama connector with some rim protection upside, he’s your kind of guy.
