Copeland Transitions to Miami RedHawks: 62.5% FG Forward with Elite Rebounding Instincts
Preston Copeland, a 6-foot-9 forward, is now a Miami RedHawk after one standout season at Ball State where he started 24 of 30 games and shot an impressive 62.5% from the field [4]. His differentiator is elite efficiency and rebounding intensity, evidenced by a 10-board game against Ohio and an 18-point bench explosion vs. Earlham [2][4]. While his scoring average was modest (4.4 PPG), his high-percentage shooting and physical presence make him a perfect fit for teams needing a reliable, low-maintenance frontcourt player who maximizes every touch [4]. He brings a high-intensity, team-first personality with no reported injury history, offering immediate value as a defensive anchor and efficient scorer [4].
