NEWARK, Del. – University of Delaware men's basketball has inked transfer guard Christian Bliss who is set to join the roster beginning in the 2025-26 season, head coach Martin Ingelsby announced Wednesday.
We're excited to add Christian Bliss to our basketball program, Ingelsby said. He's an elite playmaker and scorer with an exceptional basketball IQ, proven leadership, and a winner's mentality. Christian's ability to elevate his teammates and impact the game on both ends makes him a tremendous addition to our team.
The Queens, New York native spent the previous two seasons at the University of Virginia, where he didn't see any collegiate action. He played his high school ball at George School, starting all four years. In 2022-23, Bliss was named the Non-Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association Player of the Year after averaging 20 points, five rebounds, and five assists per game. He shot 56-percent from the field and 44-percent from beyond the arc.
Bliss led George School to its first Friends School League Championship in 2023, scoring a league-final record 39 points in the victory over Academy of the New Church en route to being named First Team All-State. He was a two-time First Team All-Friends School League honoree with 901 career points and 221 assists as George School posted a 38-12 record over two seasons. Bliss also played for PSA Cardinals, earning First Team All-Peach Jam honors in 2023.
