MONMOUTH, Ill. — Blaise Rogers, who led Midwest Central High School in points, rebounds, steals and assists his senior season, will bring his well-rounded game to Monmouth College, as he plans to enroll for the fall semester and continue his basketball career with the Fighting Scots.

“Blaise is very athletic and is a very sound basketball player,” said Terry Glasgow, who has compiled a 439-278 record in 32 seasons at Monmouth. “He can take the ball to the hoop, and he has good quickness.”

At Midwest Central, Rogers netted 14.3 points per game to go with averages of 5.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.5 steals. He made 107-of-129 free throw attempts (83 percent) and shot 42 percent from the field.

The unanimous first team All-Tomahawk Conference selection also made the Pekin Times first team All-Area squad and the Peoria Journal-Star third-team All-Area unit. Rogers was also an all-tournament selection at events in Athens and Williamsville.

The son of Bobby and Rebecca Rogers of Forest City, Rogers plans to major in history at Monmouth.
