DII Scoring Sensation Heating Up for Molloy Lions
Bryce Merchant, a 6'3"-6'5" versatile guard, exploded for a career-high 30 points and 10 rebounds on 60% shooting in Molloy's home opener, building on his stellar **2024-25 season** averaging 17.2 PPG, 5.6 RPG, and elite .454 3PT% across 27 starts[1][2][4]. His smooth scoring, rebounding tenacity for a guard, and defensive upside (30 steals last year) make him a dynamic two-way threat; early **2025-26** stats show 13 PTS in 36 MIN vs. Hofstra[3]. No injury red flags, high-motor intensity from Christ the King roots—prime fit for teams needing a reliable, explosive swingman who elevates in big moments[6].
