LA JOLLA, Calif. – UC San Diego men's basketball head coach Clint Allard has announced the addition of fifth year scholar-athlete
Treysen Eaglestaff to the Tritons' roster for the 2026-27 season. Eaglestaff comes to La Jolla after playing last season at West Virginia, where he started all 35 games, averaging 9.8 points and 4.6 rebounds per contest.
"We are really excited to add Treysen to our roster," said UC San Diego head coach
Clint Allard '08. "His productivity throughout his college career speaks for itself. He brings versatility and experience, as well as the ability to be a threat on and off the ball which is a great complement to our group. Just as importantly, his competitiveness and team-first approach fit well with the culture that has been built here."
Before joining the Mountaineers last season, Eaglestaff played three seasons at North Dakota. In 2024-25, he was the only Division I player to record multiple 40-point games that season.
