After a challenging 2025-26 campaign, the Fredonia State men's basketball team enters the 2026-27 season with an experienced roster featuring four seniors, eight juniors, and several returning contributors looking to help the Blue Devils take a step forward in SUNYAC play.
Fredonia finished 3-22 overall and 3-15 in the conference last season, but much of the roster returns, including several players who gained significant minutes and experience against a competitive SUNYAC schedule.
Among the top returning players is sophomore guard Stevie Williams, who averaged 10.8 points per game while starting 22 contests as a first-year player. Williams finished second among returning scorers and established himself as a consistent offensive option throughout the season.
Junior guard Brian Kopp also returns after averaging 8.3 points per game while shooting 44.3 percent from three-point range. Kopp connected on 27 three-pointers in just 16 appearances and provides a proven perimeter threat for the Blue Devils.
Sophomore guard Chris Williams enjoyed a productive first collegiate season, averaging 7.0 points per game while shooting better than 51 percent from the floor. His development gives Fredonia another experienced backcourt option entering the season.
The frontcourt is led by senior Jason Douglas, sophomore Antonio Andrews, and junior Mark MacDonald. Andrews averaged 3.6 points and 2.3 rebounds in limited minutes as a first-year player, while Douglas and MacDonald bring valuable experience to the rotation.
Fredonia's roster features strong upperclass representation, including seniors DeAndre Miller, Quavir Coleman, Paul Harris, Jason Douglas, and Tyrone Foster Jr. The junior class is equally deep with Anthony Brooks, Ole Angenstein, Brian Kopp, Gio Fabre, Nate Mashaw, Christian Castro, Mark MacDonald, and Jerry Peoples all returning to provide leadership and depth.
The Blue Devils will also welcome a talented freshman class featuring Malik McCall and Ryan Hough, while several returning players will compete for expanded roles throughout the lineup.
