ST. BONAVENTURE, N.Y. — Former Wayne Eagle Cameron Blankenberg – a versatile 6-foot-8 wing player – has signed a letter-of-intent to join the St. Bonaventure men’s basketball program, coach Mike MacDonald announced.

Blankenberg, a First Team Large School All-State selection who recently played for the Winchendon (Mass.) School, reclassified academically and has enrolled in the university to join the Bonnies in their current summer session on campus in preparation for the 2026-2027 season.

“We are thrilled to have Cameron join the Bonnies,” MacDonald said. “He comes from an accomplished basketball family and has a true passion for the game. He is a versatile athlete who can play multiple positions, and we believe he has a bright future ahead of him.”
