Scout Report

Standing 6-8 with the frame to develop into a true interior presence, this 2027 power forward is already drawing serious attention from Division I programs across the Northeast.

Background

Blenman has been developing his craft while playing alongside elite company, including Maryland-bound center Theo Edema and Siena commit Ryan Moesch. This high-level competition has accelerated his development and exposed him to college-level intensity on a regular basis. Playing with such talented teammates has also taught him how to impact winning in multiple ways beyond just scoring.

Playing Style

At 6-8, Blenman possesses the ideal frame for a modern power forward who can operate both inside and on the perimeter. His size advantage allows him to be effective in the post against smaller defenders, while his developing skill set suggests versatility that extends beyond traditional big man roles. The fact that he's competing alongside top-tier recruits speaks to his ability to hold his own against elite competition. As a 2027 prospect, he has significant room for physical and technical development over the next few years.

Recruitment

With four Division I offers already in hand from Molloy, Siena, Detroit Mercy, and Fairfield, Blenman has established himself as a legitimate college prospect early in the process. His recruitment figures to pick up steam as he continues developing physically and technically. Playing with committed prospects like Edema and Moesch could also open doors to higher-level programs looking for frontcourt depth in future classes.
