Braden Mashtare brings size, toughness, and an edge to Gardner-Webb’s secondary
Braden Mashtare is a 6-0, 190-pound defensive back from Landrum, S.C., and Gardner-Webb describes him as a versatile, hard-nosed defender who will bring an edge to the defense. He entered the program as a freshman, so the key appeal is projection: he looks like a physical DB with enough size to hold up in contact and enough flexibility to fit multiple roles in the secondary. If you want a developmental defensive back with toughness and upside rather than a polished stat-sheet star, he’s a fit.
