His name notwithstanding, Ace Glass is known more for his scoring ability than his rebounding prowess.
The former Washington State freshman guard, who averaged 16.4 points, three rebounds and 2.3 assists last season for the Huskies, will be bringing all of his game to Vanderbilt basketball next season.
The 6-foot-3, 185-pounder announced on Instagram on April 18 that he will transfer to play for the Commodores and Mark Byington beginning in the 2026-27 season.
Glass is the second player in two days Byington has snagged from the transfer portal.
